Indeed,  but I think it's less 'risky', as we will probably not rip out any 
dependency that we see is still in use. If we remember only leaf packages, and 
remove all leaf packages that are not in use, we get out all the addons a user 
might install.

If we remember all the dependencies that were pulled it automatically and only 
care for those, all leaf packages and dependency packages a user installs 
(using rpm or on request using zypper) are not in the automatic dependency tree 
and are thus not affected.
