Status in “gnome-app-install” package in Ubuntu: New

Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-app-install

It takes too many clicks to install codecs. Please see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVOtDnN4Aog for a demonstration.

I am attaching a patch that does away with the confirmation dialogs. If you feel like the extra warnings can't be omitted, please consider adding their text to the main "Install Media Plug-ins" dialog instead of popping up individual confirmation dialogs.
