Download & Install Button

The package manager is awesome without a doubt. But why is downloading and installing two separate steps. In otherwords, why would I download something i dont plan to immediately install and use. I've always found myself downloading and then going through pages of extras to find the "install" button for what i just donwloaded.

I suggest creating and "Download and Install" button that streamlines this process.

Who's with me? lol

This would be a great. It's very annoying to find install buttons!

I think this should not replace the normal 'Download' button. I can imagine situation where you prepare the packages but should not directly active.

Could be another button Download and Install? I'm in favor of that.

Or a button with some dropdown option... but :+1: on the idea

Dropdown would be nice too.
