Remove my gStuff

How can i:

Remove my public Google Profile
Remove my Google Picasa account
Remove my iGoogle page
Remove my Google docs account
...

How do i remove anything from google without having to remove my google mail, analytics, webmaster tools etc. as well? 

Seems like it can not be done ... every time you "try" something new from Google and come to the conclusion that you will not use that service, you will leave an empty space on one of their services with your name on it and it cannot be removed without completely deleting your entire google account, including the services you actually do want to use.

I'm having a hard time understanding why this is. It looks like their account management is a complete mess of decentralized databases from each product they acquired. It's nice that they have this "Dashboard" where you can see what data is  stored with your account but it's a shame there is no "Delete" button next to each entry.
