unfortunately none of the gui-editors use that, and since the config is
set up (in Fedora) to use gedit by default, it probably should pull it
in if its not installed. Suggests (I hope) will allow people (assuming
yum/apt/smart at some point support it) will allow users who want thin
systems to configure their systems to ignore suggests so they don't have
to accept the dependency bloat if they don't want the gnome stuff.
