A user now cannot install task-desktop alone. In other words, he
would be unable to install just X using tasksel.

The removed option is not about installing *a* Debian desktop
environment. It is about installing Debian desktop environment;
that is, installlng task-desktop. This proposal completely alters
the meaning of the present text and works against the purpose of
this portion the menu.
