This is not an idea.
This is a package request.

There is an idea at Brainstorm to have this program available as a "default".
The discussion is whether or not it should be a default.

It certainly makes things much easier for the average newbie user.

But it is not even in the Ubuntu repositories.

One does not have to consult Brainstorm before submitting a package request to 
launchpad.
In fact, Brainstorm will mark package suggestions as "Not an Idea" - and if you 
are fortunate, somebody might be kind enough to tell you how to make a package 
request (seeing as neither Brainstorm, Ubuntu main site, nor Launchpad will 
tell you in any obvious place - there is help in the wikis if you know that to 
"suggest a program" is a process that the technicians call "needs-packaging").

Here's an example of a suggestion for a program at Brainstorm;

Idea #10737: Theorur - Video & Audio Streamer - suggest add to repo source 
packages and AMD64.

If the method of making a package request has changed, or if I have done
something wrong then I'd really appreciate it if you would please let me
know.
