Being able to select several packages by selecting a metapackage is
very nice, but how will uninstallation be handled ? Will you be able
to uninstall all the packages of a metapackage in one step ?

It would also be nice to be able to select the packages one by one,
thus providing a new way to hierarchise packages without messing with
the old directory structure of the distributions. Is this planned ?
