Woohoo!
Okay, after installing a few more packages, namely:

account-plugin-twitter
l10n-app-twittershare
l10n-app-twitter
webupload-service-twitter

I was able to sign on to twitter, and I no longer have the "qtn_twit" label on everything. Same goes for facebook(installed the corresponding facebook packages for the above files).

So things are getting a little more bearable. Would still really like to know how to delete those pre installed appliations, aside from the quick tweak route. Any suggestions?

Damnit! I just realized that accuweather isn't on here either. Just tried installing "restore accuweather for meego" from the nokia store, failed with a "unable to trace installation package dependencies". Any ideas for that? Thanks again guys!
