I was reading OSnews, and came across a comparison of Fedora and Ubuntu. 
The author offered his views on both systems, including some things that 
I think make sense.

the article: http://nerdsyndrome.com/linuxdesktop/index.php

It raises some pionts about how synaptic and apt function, and how they 
could function, for instance:
=> that it'd be very cool that users would be able to click on a .deb, 
and have apt/synaptic automaticly install the program.
=> to have the catagories in synaptic match the ones in the gnome menu.
=> from synaptic, link to the documentation / author's webpage

Perhaps some of these could be implemented?
