I'm not sure how flexible GNOME Online Accounts is, but that's something
to look into for sure.

Turning off as opposed to what... uninstalling? Surely you don't expect
users to manually select packages for individual services they need. Not
to mention, this doesn't work in the uni/ library/ office.

I think packages are only relevant as far as non-standard dependencies
go. So long as GNOME Online Accounts decides *what* should show up and
most services don't need special API, I see no problem having one "web
services" package.
