Package: aptitude
Version: 0.2.15.8-1ubuntu12
Severity: wishlist

A question that I suspect many users will have is, "Which web browsers
do I have installed?" So they'll want to use synaptic first to display
all installed packages, then to display all installed web browsers.
The natural UI for this is a tree control.
