I understand the limitation, but thinks the solution can be better than
what we have currently. gdm3, gnome-session and synaptic will be a
better default (as gnome-desktop-enviroment is bigger than can be bit
into a CD) than a system without a gui. This allows a user to install
required packages from the network.
