           Summary: Downloading package B in background while installing
                    package A-*.

          Platform: All

Waiting until all 30 rpms of A-* are downloaded, installing all 30 rpms of A-*
and then AGAIN WAITING until all 15 rpms of B-* are downloaded is just waste of
time IMHO. Especially on modem and/or when installing A-* could take 2-3 hours
(*-debuginfo;). Could B-* be downloaded "in background" while installing A-* ?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.poldek:/all-avail> upgrade
Display all 1070 possibilities? (y or n)

2.poldek:/all-avail> upgrade *
Actual Results:  
downloading set#1 20 min (modem...)
installing set#1 14 min
downloading set#2 6 min
installing set#2 2 min
downloading set#3 97 min
installing set#3 240 min (some big *-debuginfo, repackaging, slow CPU...)
downloading set#4 40 min
...

Expected Results:  
downloading set#1 20 min
installing set#1 14 min
installing already downloaded set#2 2 min
finishing downloading set#3 85 min
installing set#3 240 min 
installing already downloaded set#4 35 min
installing already downloaded set#5 17 min
installing already downloaded set#6 60 min
installing already downloaded set#7 1 min
installing already downloaded set#8 2 min
