Thanks for the suggestion, negora. I've updated the design spec to
include this as a small feature anyone can contribute.

- Binary package hint: software-center
+ software-center 4.0.1, Ubuntu 11.04
It's not bug but a request. I know that you may open DEB packages if
Ubuntu Software Center is associated to the DEB mime type, just with a
double-click on the file. However, I believe that it would be desirable
to have such option from the Software Center menu itself.
