plz hide the libraries and dev in the app window

In the app window I would add a checked box named "show libraries and dev" that it should be unchecked by default. Infact I don't see the need for the user to see extensions like libxx, gtk+-2, glib1...
If u look at ubuntu, in the first menu there is a program called "add - remove programs" that is a list of choosed programs that is more user friendly then the one in synaptic.
So I would reorganize the extensions where each extension can be one of this 2 types:
-main program
-dependence, library, development

If the user will check the box they'll be showed

mikshaw:
If the application you're downloading requires these packages, they're going to need to be downloaded, so why would there be any reason to hide them?

they'll be downloaded automatically, hide for the list to be more user friendly

curaga:
It's a good idea in my opinion. Perhaps a second checkbox for extensions with modules?

Jason W:
One day we will have enough little library extensions to justify somehow hiding them.  That is a small price to pay for being modular and not including dependent libs with each extension.  I am sure a solution will emerge in time.
