The second list is about packages not installed by default. Not removed.

It is the same for nfs-utils. No operating system is shipped whithout
tools to run their own network tools. It would be very bizar not to
include nfs-utils as well.
Explain why nfs-utils is required in a *desktop* spin.


 No operating system is shipped whithout tools to run their own network
tools. It is not because it is a Desktop tools that we should prevent
people from sharing files between their machines.
The desktop spin should not limit itself to type document in a word
processing software and to listen to music.

That is precisely a target of a desktop CD.

 We should be able to handle
some basic networks as well, because poeple want to manage their files
and their hardwares (printers...), to share them among a personal
network. If samba-common is included, then nfs-utils should for the same
reasons.

If you want them install them. Majority of desktop users dont use NFS.
