Comment 2 for bug 781657

Hm… nothing springs to mind right away. The filters UI is tuned to be tinkered with, so hopefully it can become more natural with additional tinkering, but of course that isn't ideal. Would it help if we made it clear what packages are selected, maybe above the results? (“15 packages from core and ubuntu-desktop”).

The Packages filter group might be a little counter-intuitive right now, since it's filtering down from the set of ALL packages instead of adding packages to an empty set (and there is nothing to say where all those packages came from). The original mockup had a pair of radio buttons to select the initial set (All packages, All I can upload, All I'm bug contact for). As we add Launchpad integration, it would be nice to add that radio group as well. Perhaps it would help explain what's going on.

I am probably not a great authority on Harvest's learnability, though, since I've been so involved in gluing it together. Maybe we can go poke some design people :)
