This sounds like a good way to implement a long-standing RFE in the installer: have a button to resolve all dependencies and install all required packages, given a custom package set chosen by the user. For example, if a user picks "Core Metacaluster", then picks some other optional packages, they are often blasted in the face with a bunch of "you need this, this, and that before continuing" and they have to go back and pick the right stuff, and then they are blasted in the face again since they picked new packages. It would be nice to have a "pick them for me" button. There are a few RFEs filed, but bugster is misbehaving currently so I don't have the IDs handy.
