Bug#1068774: (No Subject)
> You found with #956330 already a feature request that asks for that
No, that other issue is not about kept-back packages in specific. I don't see how the functionality of that issue would be very useful but for kept-back packages asking the user or by default not marking them as manually installed could be very useful and seems more like what one would expect it to do.
> Note that "phases upgrades" have their own listing now
Do you mean phased updates? Whether or not you meant that, I don't know what you mean there (what and how it relates to this issue).
> it turns out that you 'install' things you care about and don't want removed as unneeded later on
This is about kept-back packages where install is used to make them install.
