Yeah I've discussed this a bit with some people, and I agree. Fedora *users* might use the packages app to find out the same info that packagers want to find out. However, I think that even though users and packagers are coming to this app for the same purpose, only one of those purposes maps to the CPE team's mission statement: the packager's. If you are a packager, you *need* to know what versions are where at a glance, especially when dealing with something high priority like a CVE. That's not to say that the end-user story isn't a valuable use case, but our team is overburdened and we need to drop most of what we do right now, and we have to be specific about what our purpose is. This means dropping some valuable use cases. Of course, this is also my own opinion, and I welcome disagreement.
