+1 on this feature request.

 I'm not sure what would be the best way to handle the installation.
 synaptic install game would be great, except synaptic doesn't
 support that yet. ;-)

IMO just running a terminal in which an aptitude install is invoked
would be more than enough. Something on the lines of:

  gksu -- x-terminal-emulator -e aptitude install game

should probably work.

Cheers.

 If that feature is added, goplay would be close to ready to be included
 in the desktop task.

Synaptic must have *some* support for that, since update-manager uses it 
for something that should be synaptic update/synaptic upgrade package.
