  Removing gwibber-service removes indicator-me

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gwibber

  Removed gwibber. Since gwibber-service starts unasked  three services removed it also.
  It removes indicator-me too.
  Expected is, gwibber-service can be removed without interference of whatever indicator*.

  Gwibber is just another app which one may use or not, but indicators are essentials of Ubuntu-Desktop.
  How come that just another app is allowed to remove indicator*, which is needed for another app e.g. Empathy?

  Aside, ubuntuone-client and couchdb-bin were removed before, now when
  attempting to reinstall indicator-me, those and related, already
  removed, packages are about to be installed again. (screenshot)

  Result, user runs in circle or has to abstain from indicator-me, while
  keeping Empathy without showing online-status.

  Conclusion, if gwibber-service leaves indicator-me alone, follow-up  behaviour as above don't occur.
  Plus, either package doesn't mention the other one as dependency, although Synaptic says something else.
