Hit F7. Or go to the menu with F10 and select the view you want from "Views"

3 seems right. Currently most packages are 2 levels away. This works quite 
good. Less sublevels would defeat the purpose of sublevels (we'd end up with 
1 very long list of categories, or way too many packages in a category to be 
usefull).

Yes certainly, I consider this a big plus. Not allowing more than one category 
would lead us with the problem of exact classification. With multiple 
categories per package we can be a bit fuzzy.
