I can sort of follow your logic, but it would not be mine. I don't see the absence of jpeg support (for example) as being any kind of anomaly either. It's a "neat feature that many people like to have and might get confused about when it's not available, so they should get extra warning about its absence". Same for an X toolkit IMO.
