"I think there are reasons for the way it is set up, so that it doesn't
accidentally remove things you want. I think that would be worse."

Indeed; but if its made an additional option, e.g. the "Mark for
autoremoval" or such, and it behaves just like apt-get autoremove except
in a GUI-way, it will explicitly ask before marking the other packages
too.  And then you also have to go through the confirmation step in
Synaptic, so I think the chances of accidentally deleting important
packages are low.

I will edit the description in a moment; thanks for considering this as
a wishlist item :)
