Bug Description
Binary package hint: synaptic
When changes are made, but not applied, and Synaptic is being closed, I believe there should be an "Apply & Quit" button in the exit dialog.

Thanks for your mail.

I'm not sure if that really should be put into synaptic. I wonder if
it is not easier if "update-manager" (a application used in ubuntu to
just display available software update) is ported to debian (people
are already working on doing this). It seems to me that the main
use-case you describe - installing (security) updates - is covered
with it better. Let me know what you thing about it.
Cheers,
Michael
