Strictly speaking, “desktop” sounds like it doesn’t need an SSH server.

However, the idea was that ‘%desktop-services’ would provide you the
typical set of services you get by default when installing another
“desktop” distro, and an SSH server is usually one of them.

That said, I can see your point, and I don’t feel strongly about it.
What do others think?
