Currently it is not the question if to replace our existing tools. But
it is important to not miss the PackageKit interface on APT based
systems, since some upstream projects think about using it for
installing additional components.

Furthermore PackageKit only wants to target simply package manupiulation
tasks. It will never be a replacement for Synaptic, but could be used in
the language selector or gnome-app-install.

Cheers,

Sebastian
