I would tend to second the motion, especially in cases where said new packages are already a dependency of another package.
IIRC, ubuntu-desktop (and maybe a few others) are the apex packages that represent what is installed. Anything new that is already a dependency of the new version of these "meta packages" should IMHO be just as auto-flagged as they would have been had they been installed for the first time on a clean system.
