Bug Description

It would be good to have a feature to queue packages to be installed at a later time.

Use Case
-----------
I want to install FooBar game. However my current WiFi connection is weak and would take a long time to download. So I tag this package as install later and when I am home. I will go to the queue panel and click 'Install Now' button.

s-c could also use this queue to store packages which fail to install due to being offline, power failures, installation failures.
