I think easier way is only remember package which user want explicit
install (like you click on something in YaST and few others is also
checked, so remember only first...same in zypper). Then make call like
remove obsolete, which take this list of packages and create tree of its
dependencies (also apply soft and hard locks). And uninstall everything
which is not in this tree of dependencies.

Be careful with packages that were installed using rpm directly. You will not
have them in your list of being 'requested' by the user.
Always removing them would certainly not be a good idea though.
