Public bug reported:

Ubuntu Gutsy, without any extra codecs installed

1. Try to open an MP3 file.
2. In the "Search for suitable codec?" alert, click "Search".
3. Observe the resulting "Searching for appropriate codecs window".

What happens: Steps 2 and 3 are separate windows, requiring an
unnecessary mouse click.

What should happen:
* Steps 2 and 3 are the same progress window: "The plugin to play this type of 
file (MP3) is not installed. Totem is searching the software repositories for 
an appropriate plugin."
* The combined progress window has a "Cancel" button, so if I want to cancel 
the operation before the search finishes, I can. Otherwise, I can cancel it in 
the resulting list of plugins.
* Any necessary warning about the software not being supported is shown in the 
resulting list of plugins, not in a preliminary alert.
