One thing I would really like is for PackageKit to download updates in the background (detecting whether I am on a low bandwidth connection) and only prompt me for updates when it is ready to install. Another constant annoyance is that soon after a yum operation in the command line, PackageKit insists on updating some metadata immediately thereby locking out the subsequent commands for sometime (can be a considerable delay). I would prefer it to wait for a few mins and not interrupt me. Filed and closed WONTFIX however.
