I'm sorry, but I can't see any advantage in the tree view.
[+] [ ] package A
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
and what would be displayed here (package size, version, status...)?
And it would be difficult and time consuming to search all packages which belongs to the same group.
The rest would be the same. Instead of currently listed view with all packages, now group could be displayed (main package + devel + src + doc...) as one item.
Less space taken on the screen, easier to see the groups (by definition).

Quite contrary. You could set "unfold all", you could see right away the right group and its boundaries, and search would not change a bit.
However, this was just a suggestion, I can live with list view :-).

Currently right upper pane is presented as list view. However consider package A -- as additional packages there could be A-devel A-src. Most of the times only package A is required. Currently there is only one UI feature to deal with it -- turn on/off -devel packages. But this one works in global scope. But what about tree view: [+] [ ] package A and that's it. When user indeed wants src or devel package she/he could show those packages but only for package A: [-] [ ] package A [ ] package A-devel [ ] package A-src [ ] package A-headers etc. This could work for all other sub-packages like codecs (vide: k3b, k3bmonkey plugin, k3b codecs).
