Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-app-install

We need an adjustment to gnome-app-install for an Edubuntu spec:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Specs/UbuntuJaunty/EducationAppBundles

>From IRC:
<   LaserJock> | well, basically I've got some metapackages
<   LaserJock> | and we'd like them to "float" to the top of the Education menu
<   LaserJock> | I was wondering if perhaps a general mechanism would be better 
than just special-casing them
<   LaserJock> | something like a "X-AppInstall-Float" flag
<         mvo> | you wanted some magic to change the ordering?
<   LaserJock> | that you would then collect all the floats and put them at the 
beginning somehow
<         mvo> | to make it appear on top all the time
<         mvo> | yeah, I think that can be done relatively easily (famous last 
words ;)
<         mvo> | a bug would be most helpful, then I can target it etc
<         mvo> | just pasting this irc conversation is good enough for me
<         mvo> | X-AppInstall-AlwaysOnTop, Floating, something like this
