If you don't want aptitude to remove unused packages, you can disable this behavior in the configuration file. It's a core program feature and not going away. I was going to additionally say that it's not even feasible to detect metapackages, but I notice that debtags has a "metapackage" tag, so maybe future versions of aptitude can use that to (optionally) override the usual decisions about what's automatically installed.
