I don't think we should do this unless we also have the manpower resources identified to bring apps up to meet the standards. There are a lot of otherwise good, powerful applications which simply haven't kept up with the latest GUI technologies, and it would be shooting ourselves in the foot to simply drop them. If the goal here is to motivate projects to implement particular technologies that we want to see more consistent across applications, there are way more effective tactics to employ for that... If the goal is to clear out clutter from universe and/or main that we have to support, I would think Debian already should have processes for this?
