This would be a serious UX problem for most people if we stick to this decision.
So you want a UI that's more technical than gnome-software, and less
technical than dnf? I tried that with gnome-packagekit, and it wasn't
powerful enough for power users and wasn't easy to use for mere
mortals. Install gnome-packagekit (either from the software center, or
dnf :) and have a play.

Yeah, the problem here is where to draw the line. A developer may also want to install libraries for the language they are developing in (e.g. perl), but showing all the perl modules in software is really hard to do while still making it usable. A search for "Web" alone would show results for 7 perl modules that most users probably don't want.
