I'm attempting to uninstall several packages one after another, they get added to the queue and begin uninstalling while I keep selecting other packages. Now, everytime a package finishes uninstalling, the whole screen refreshes itself, it becomes unusable for a few seconds while I get the spinning wheel icon and then returns control but having collapsed all categories instead of remembering where I was. A possible workaround is to uninstall packages one by one, but that wold be quite time consuming and one would have to enter the password for each package. In any case, I think it'd be better if the refresh didn't happen in such a disruptive way, or at least if it was able to remember the user's last position within the software tree. By the way: I'm using Gnome 3 and Unity is uninstalled from my system (I don't know if that can make any difference).
