There are always pros and cons and it's not easy to make everyone happy.
As Stano said, that pop-up had been added because of very slow starting
of package manager. This issue is not there anymore, we have a very fast
libzypp now.

Moreover, there are no other YaST modules that would do the same. E.g.,
once you configure your DNS Server, you have it configured and if you
decide to check or change the configuration, just run the YaST module
again. There's no difference, no reason (but that people got used to
that) why it should behave differently.

How often do you actually use this feature? How often do you
install/upgrade/remove a software and right after then decide you want
install/upgrade/remove some more?
