As far as I can see given the accepted examples of "-lite" episodes, it's not a simple deemphasis of the role of a character but actually a very limited screen time (I'm guessing that it's 10 minutes at the most). I mean, "Rose" is really more about Rose than the Doctor, she's the featured character in the story. But that doesn't make it a Doctor-lite episode.
