Previously there was no nag.  I deslected some important package and
was lost.  Now a hint is displayed, one could tell the user: "There
are important packages missing in your selection, do you really want
to be that stupid?  To add these packages automatically hit the box
below."

That would be nice.  Now I must uncheck the box or fake package.db
or s.th. like that.  It is as annoying as it is to be forced to
always uncheck the "put shortcut icon on desktop" checkbox, though
I have this shortcut already.
