Acknowledged; but I wonder why you don't just use intermediate
metapackages.  This wasn't supposed to be an issue because I didn't
envision that people would be attempting to use Task-Seeds all the way
down the inheritance chain.  For Ubuntu, an example looks like this:

  required -> minimal -> standard -> desktop-common -> desktop

minimal declares Task-Seeds: required, and desktop declares Task-Seeds:
desktop-common; we don't need to do more than that because there exist
ubuntu-minimal, ubuntu-standard, and ubuntu-desktop metapackages.  Task-
Seeds was only meant to bridge the gap between seeds where it's worth
building metapackages for them.
