You are right, but consider a more realistic situation, such as "install
kde, install kdeaccessibility, install kate-plugins, remove kde" => nothing
removed here. Aptitude relies on the precise history of installations and
removals, and the user has to keep track of what packages he installed,
before he can "easily" revert it.
I think an history-independent behaviour makes senses for meta-packages.
