Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
Wish for Dapper:

If I download a single deb package from internet for example opera, and
I click on it in Nautilus there will pop up file roller instead of an
installation dialog.

It would be great if it would be possible to click on a single deb
package in Nautilus and get an installation dialog asking the user if
he/she wants to install the package.

In Kubuntu they have integrated sth. like that in Konqueror which
installs a deb package if you click on it.

I think this is very important for users who want to install an package
from the internet which is not in Ubuntu repository like Opera, Skype,
...
