Title:
  Update Managers section titles should contain description ( with link
  to Ubuntu Help )

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  linards at linards-desktop:~$ lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
  Release:	10.04
  linards at linards-desktop:~$ apt-cache policy synaptic
  synaptic:
    Installed: 0.63.1ubuntu6
    Candidate: 0.63.1ubuntu6
    Version table:
   *** 0.63.1ubuntu6 0
          500 http://lv.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
  linards at linards-desktop:~$ apt-cache policy update-manager
  update-manager:
    Installed: 1:0.134.6
    Candidate: 1:0.134.6
    Version table:
   *** 1:0.134.6 0
          500 http://lv.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  This would be very useful for new users to Linux - Ubuntu
  distribution.

  There is unused and easy implementable feature to add descriptive text as change list for titles ( separators between update types and sources in Update Managers checklistbox ):
  - "Distribution Updates"
  - "PPA: XXX XXX"
  - others.

  Fore clarification, attachment included.
