I agree as well.
I've avoided Qt-based packages because of unwanted kde packages being 
"required".  (Being a Gnome user.)
(Luckily I was able to find non-Qt more-or-less equivalents.)

It seems to me more appropriate to let requires cascade, so as to minimize 
installed packages, rather than trying to include (and install) everything.
