SGTM, but we should probably offer a gnome-developer-tools meta package
too if we aim to make that distinction.  Also note that gnome
technically isn't gnome-core: for instance, it excludes eog on
platforms where it doesn't build and I personally don't aim on touching
Loupe with a ten-foot pole while the Rust build system is still a
blazing dumpster.

Cheers
