Title:
  Have Unity monitor and react to all installation events

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  A few times now I have closed the software center while installing a
  couple new toys.  What happens is that it leaves the "waiting to
  install" icon on the unity bar.. and re-opening software center to
  finish the installs doesn't resolve the problem.

  I think that if you are installing software, it should be indicated in
  the dock / notification area..  with a tray icon to manage some basic
  options.

  So the bug is "waiting to install" sits around until you reboot (I
  think) and other icons from software that was installed after you
  closed the software-center does not get a unity icon at all.  It
  really messes up the flow...
