How about this for a solution?  Make a group for install that contains 
the gdm and a group for remove that does not contain gdm.  Then yum 
would only have to know if it was doing an install or a remove to get 
the right group.

Maybe a label field in the group file that yum could check.  Label gdm 
as install only.  Then yum would know to ignore gdm when removing this 
group.
