My priority would be krita | mypaint… but well I don´t know mypaint very well. 
I just know Krita has gotten a lot of love of developers, also by usability 
testing with artists, to make it really awesome for digital painting.

Sometimes it would be nice to have it like this:

apt-get install design-desktop-graphics

and then get a checkbox menu on which of the ones to install.

But then how to keep track which packages the meta package should keep 
installed?

I also wonder about the visibility to meta packages like this. I am not aware 
of a complete list of them. I am away of debian junior, debian med, recently 
saw parl for parliamentary work… but how does the user discover these? Well 
thats to a different forum to discuss probably, just wondered about it.
