The point of ubuntu-desktop (and the like) is precisely to assert a default set of packages which we tested and are officially supported. Thus, ubuntu-minimal is *meant* to be removed if you replace one of its dependencies with an alternative.

If you think that syslog-ng would serve as a better default, this should become a proper specification. Incidentally, there already is one: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/syslog-improvements, so if you are interested it, please feel invited to subscribe to it and push forward it.

Thank you!
