Package: gnome-software
Version: 43.5-1~deb12u1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,
As part of my wishlist:
I'd like to be able to remove installed packages quicker.
Because as it is now:
If I want to uninstall a package I need to:
- Scroll down and click uninstall.
- Then again click uninstall. Unnecessary.
- Then enter password to escalate privilages.
If I want to uninstall the next package on the list:
- Again scroll down to find it (Because after the uninstallation of
each package you start at the begining of the list). Unnecessary.
- Again enter password. Unnecessary.
I'd love to see some sort of tick-box where I can select all packages I
wish to uninstall and enter password once.
Thank you for reading me.
