I had a similar experience with Gnome.  I'm a KDE user, but I use
occasional gnome apps, and found myself downloading a zillion things
just to use those apps.

I used to worry about it, back in the days of 100 GB hard drives.  But,
you know, now that your average laptop hold a terrabyte or more, I
figure that adding a few hundred megs of stuff I rarely use is worth
the convenience.  The real estate on the drive is pretty cheap, now.
