Um... Finding out about new packages is fine, but having it only work as 
long as you have everything in a particular group IMO isn't useful.

I'd rather see "interests", i.e. "subscribe" to certain groups to get 
notification of new packages in that group. And there needs to be a way 
to run updates without pulling new packages (and once I've declined a 
new package from a group I am subscribed to, I should never be prompted 
about it again).
