Just uploaded Apport Report about system specs, in short, bug still remains in 
Karmic via CLI.
Not sure which key you meant here,

> Attaching a debdiff that itroduces the APT::Get::HideAutoRemove key.

manpage of apt-get doesn't mention it.

Did a test cmd via CLI:
sudo apt-get -s purge gnome-utils
Output:
Paketlisten werden gelesen... Fertig  ## read package list
Abhängigkeitsbaum wird aufgebaut       ## create dependency tree
Lese Status-Informationen ein... Fertig  ## read status information
## However, below are the essential (irritating) lines.
## Following packages were installed automatically and no longer needed. Use 
'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
## I know for what reason I want to keep them and certainly don't want to 
remove them. 
## But it may confuse a user to issue the cmd 'autoremove'.
Die folgenden Pakete wurden automatisch installiert und werden nicht länger 
benötigt:
  libglademm-2.4-1c2a pavucontrol linux-headers-2.6.31-14 
linux-headers-2.6.31-14-generic
Verwenden Sie »apt-get autoremove«, um sie zu entfernen.
Die folgenden Pakete werden ENTFERNT:
  gnome-utils* ubuntu-desktop*
0 aktualisiert, 0 neu installiert, 2 zu entfernen und 0 nicht aktualisiert.
Purg ubuntu-desktop [1.175]
Purg gnome-utils [2.28.1-0ubuntu1]

Thanks for your attention.

** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu)
       Status: Fix Released => New
