I find that scrolling through all the packages shown in the package
selection window of setup.exe can be very tedious.
Sometime I don't know exactly what a package is called, other times
I am hunting around on a hunch, but in any case I do not want to
scroll through the whole list to find it.
So: Does setup.exe have a package selection filter that can help,
and if not, shouldn't it? I have missed this for a long time....
The whole business about clicking twice on "View" top see all
packages, installed or not, is also pretty obscure.
