Hello Sergio and sorry for the delay!

Yes, you are right! The problem is that we cannot simply add gnome/unity-settings-daemon as required component because it will force installing almost all GNOME/Unity packages on other sessions (e.g. it can be annoying for KUbuntu users).
But it can be interesting to only install it on GNOME/Unity sessions, e.g.:

    unity-settings-daemon | e17 | kde-workspace | openbox | lxsession | xfce4-session | mate-session-manager | razorqt-session | cinnamon-session

(or gnome-settings-daemon for Trusty)
What do you think about that?

> A survey of my trusty desktops indicates that systems upgraded from precise have gnome-session installed but fresh trusty installs only have gnome-session-bin. gnome-session depends on gnome-settings-daemon but gnome-session-bin does not.

Yes, it seems we missed that :-/
