New submission from Gavin Burnell <gb119 at cus.cam.ac.uk>:

It would be really nice if it was possible for smart to show a list of packages
that were not satisfying dependencies of other packages (i.e. all 'top-level'
packages). I guess smart must be able to figure this out from its understanding
of the relationships between packages. This would be a nice feature to help
identify packages that have been left behind when a dependent package was
deleted. (On a similar vein, an option to make "smart remove" greedy and remove
as many packages as possible starting from the user's chosen package would also
be nice.)
