Correct, the script currently does not run the command, instead printing it out.
It is my intention to change this to run the command once it's been stable for a while (and several kernel updates). In the mean time testers can duplicate the line
  echo sudo apt-get remove $PKGS_LIST
and remove the echo :
  sudo apt-get remove $PKGS_LIST
to have the suggestions happen automatically. 
This *should* be safe, but be aware of the limited testing to date.

Yes, the user will see multiple kernels (at least two if using last-
good-boot). The default settings for Grub, however, mean the latest one
will always be selected.

Your suggestion to append "(Recommended)" is a good one though- open a
new wish list item.
