In the meantime, perhaps the message in the Cruft Remover window could
be changed from "This application helps you to get rid of cruft" to
something clearer along the lines of "This application helps you to
identify and remove packages that might no longer be necessary. WARNING:
it is not currently possible to tell the difference between obsolete
Ubuntu packages and third-party packages that you installed yourself."

(The existing message is rather unhelpful in any case -- "cruft" is
hacker jargon that will confuse many users, and should not be used
without explanation.)

Even if it's too late to change this in all the translations, just doing
this in English would be better than nothing.
