I think Duncan stated the position pretty clearly in the bugzilla comments 
(#54). 

"This feature can be consideered. But it is not a priority. We are making the
updater more modular so you can plugin backends and behaviour, that feature
will come naturally."

Personally I think it's a good position. I much prefer the package management 
devs to work on libzypp performance and the like, rather than a feature that 
does far more harm than good.

.. and with the rewritten libzypp and the cachestore it'll be pretty fast to 
check.

zypper lu -t package

or

yast sw_single -> Package -> all packages -> update if newer avaialable
