Agreed. 
So in Gtk IDE Package Manager the 'Updates' filter option and 'Updates' button 
could be renamed 'Upgradeable'. This will also help with consistency between 
the Gtk & JHS IDEs. If a shorter label is desired then "Upgradeable" could be 
replaced with "Upgrades"

Looking at the JHS ide pacman, I wonder whether a alternative (better?) 
solution to moving the "Remove" command to the Tools menu, would be to create 
another filter option "Removeable". When this filter option is selected, the 
Install button could be renamed/replaced with a Remove button.

Another suggestion would be to change the ability to filter on either Status or 
Category to filtering on both at once. I.e. Instead of the radio buttons 
sharing a single list, there could be two separate lists.

I'd also like to see the filters/selection functionality eventually make it 
into the JHS package manager.
