In the past we had to reduce the number of applications with every release because the dependency footprint became worse and worse. Now we cannot even ship gnumeric in the Xfce spin any longer. I am pretty sure our users don't want us to spend the new space with an additional desktop they cannot / don't want use. BTW: FESCo started an effort to cut excessive dependencies. Looking at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/showdependencytree.cgi?id=661442 you will see that our GNOME maintainers are very unresponsive to the bugs we file.
