Yes, a simple diff between G:F and G:C generated this list.

We need to figure out what packages to move from the list. How about I
word it differently: "These are potential candidates..."?

I guess I could have compared it to oS:F but for some reason (which I
can not explain) I thought G:F would do it.

I'd be keen to know why it was packaged as "Nautilus" instead of
