I miss the ability to check out changelogs from installed packages in
synaptic. It would be useful to see it while offline, or for packages
not in ubuntu (e.g., packages from medibuntu). The way it works now,
it's mainly intended to check for what's changed before the user
upgrades the package, since you have to download it each time, even if
there's no newer pacakge.
