Because then we would lose all the other recommended packages:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/wily/gnome-panel

alacarte    easy GNOME menu editing tool 
evolution-data-server    evolution database backend server 
gnome-applets    Various applets for the GNOME panel - binary files 
gnome-session-flashback (>= 3.14.0)    GNOME Session Manager - GNOME Flashback 
session 
gvfs    userspace virtual filesystem - GIO module 
indicator-applet-complete    Clone of the GNOME panel indicator applet 
unity-control-center    utilities to configure the GNOME desktop 

Listing those one-by-one in the `apt-get install` line of our installer
script is possible but it makes the code too much ubuntu-version
specific.


And of course other users installing gnome-panel (notably LTSP users) running 
the `apt-get install` manually wouldn't be aware of this bug in order to read 
it and run it with --no-install-recommends.
