I missed the beginning of this tread, but my 2 cents:

The Debian Cdrom I have comes with a file with a list of packages.
It is called packages or Packages. The file contains a longish
description of each package, including   priority, type (editor, shell,
x11, etc). I copied this package to hard disk, and wrote a perl
script that would print on each line the name, the priority,
the type, and length.  I then could sort on each field to produce
files sorted by name, priority, etc. 

I wrote lots of other scripts too. If anyone is interested, email me.

I prefer to install packages with scripts rather than on the fly with
a GUI application.
