Sebastian, I'm not sure what you're suggesting USC should change here.
Are you saying that the download size we report is wrong, because it
doesn't count the download size for uninstalled dependencies?

Title:
  Simulate requires an authentication before

Status in “aptdaemon” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: aptdaemon

  The transaction should require authentication if the Run method was
  called. This way the user could simulate a transaction and get e.g.
  the download size or dependencies before haing to authenticate for the
  action. This would allow to provide better dialogs before
  authentication. Furthermore s-c could show the download/dependencies
  in the package description.
