I tested Mate and Cinnamon, they are still installed, but I don't use
them at the moment. Likely it was a dependency of one of those DEs.

gnome-settings-daemon-compat is one of the packages pacman -Qdtq |
pacman -Rs - wants to remove, gnome-settings-daemon-nopulse isn't one
of those packages.

Perhaps something to do when doing the spring cleaning.
