Bug Description
When you change repositories and close the Software Sources window, a dialog pops-up telling you to update the APT cache. I think that it could be done automatically _unless_ the user is on mobile broadband.
If the user is not on mobile broadband I guess there is no other reason not to.
if is_on_mobile_
else: <display "cache not updated because you're on mobile broadband" notification>
That would be both an usability and convenience win.
