So i understand that by default these will be installed, unless other
solver policy is used (dont-install-recommends) somehow (is this
available already?). So for zypper this could mean to display:

"The following new recommended packages will be installed in addition:

  foopackage barpackage"

What's the difference between suggested and recommended then?
