  Can you work around this problem by (starting with both at "Keep")

Maybe it would be intuitive ask the user (by providing a dialogue box with package list and count) to implicitly set the Reinstall/Uninstall operation on all mutually-dependant packages and their descendants in the same operation.


A two button dialog offering "Abort" or "Include".
