Nice! Not sure why, but I was scared of starting with the barebones image. This is the way to go if you know you're way around!
For what it's worth, installing the 'base-devel' meta package should get you everything needed to build packages.
I got Gnome Shell up and running last night using pretty much this same method: Install 'gnome-shell', and substitute 'gnome.desktop' for 'plasmawayland.desktop' in autologin.conf.
IMHO it seems to be the most tablet friendly out of the box, and performs fairly well!
I've compiled packages giving me a 'working' copy of Plasma Mobile as well, but it's not too functional...fun to see though!
Loving this full Arch experience on a tablet.
