We need to come up with a system that isn't based on Fedora, as ubuntu
might call this something different. In fedora we might install a
group, in ubuntu they might install a metapackage. We can't have
fedora'isms in upstream PackageKit.

Seems a sane idea, it just needs someone to implement it in gnome-packagekit.
