There is no rule that every X application needs to carry dependencies to make
remote X terminals working (AFAIK).
It wouldn't even make sense to implement that rule in every X application as
packages lower down the chain should provide them.
xorg-x11-xauth is completely out of scope for example to be required from
Firefox as it's a basic X functionality needed for everything when SSH X
forwarding is being used. IMHO it makes no sense to pull that in automatically
as people using remote X should know that it's needed (or we would need a
pattern for "minimal X for remote sessions").
I do not confirm the bug as it stands for Firefox and move it to an X component
for evaluation. I also change the subject to reflect the real issue a bit more
but do specifically note that I do not think that this is a bug.
