I wonder if it would be feasible to start developing support for command
line 'yum install foo' suggestions to users (ala apt on debian/ubuntu
systems).
For instance, user knows (from a friend or random webpage) that the
program foo is neat, and tries to start it:

That'd be nice to have also, and i think is fairly orthogonal to the
fedora-apps RPM idea. After all this targets terminal users, while the
uninstalled icons target all users, especially those that never use a
terminal app (i.e. those for whom the only way to install additional
software is with the 'Add/Remove Software' menu entry, aka pirut).
