Hello

I hope this is the right place to post suggestions.
It is said so in: file:///usr/share/synaptic/html/index.html

My (another) suggestion for Synaptic:
While Synaptic is {
 * downloading packages 
 * or intalling packages 
 * or refreshing repositories
}
, the user should be allowed to operate on the package list in (some kind of) 
read-only mode.

Example: User searches for a program of a particular type; he finds one; 
decides to install it; lenghty download process begins; *meanwhile* the user 
would like to see whether there are other programs of the same type.
Note: One could instead launch e.g. Aptitude while Synaptic is doing Its work; 
but "Synaptic is Synaptic" :-). Also: one more app == more used memory.

Regards,
K.D.P.
