I had PK code to do that, but the check for updates took way too long, as the updates-testing repo had to be enabled, the primaries downloaded (and maybe the file lists too), updates resolved and then disabled again, in ADDITION to the normal updates check. The package manager is just too slow to get PackageKit data to make such a thing work without making the user wait an extra 30 seconds. If we could speed up the dep checking and downloading, I agree it would be better for usability, and the exposure of updates-testing generally.
