This would be very useful for new users to Linux - Ubuntu distribution.

There is unused and easy implementable feature to add descriptive text as change list for titles ( separators between update types and sources in Update Managers checklistbox ):
- "Distribution Updates"
- "PPA: XXX XXX"
- others.

Fore clarification, attachment included.
