Bug Description
From omgubuntu:
"I know it might not be the best place to make a feature request, but anyway here I go: could you guys add an option for right click > 'Uninstall this application', ala Mint menu? that could be pretty useful :)"
I like the idea - what do you think Thiago?

I remember Jan-Christoph and I talked about this possibility before. I think the consensus was that the "uninstall" command is used so seldomly (at most once per application, ever!) that there isn't much of a reason to have it there. Plus I think we couldn't figure out a good way to uninstall apps.
Putting all this logic aside, even on an emotional level it just feels very much like feature-creep to me... I'd rather avoid it.
BUT HERE'S WHAT: We can take a vote. If 3 of the 4 team members vote "yes", then it gets implemented.
For now, my vote is "no", but I can always be convinced otherwise. It has been known to happen :)
