Rename 'Documentation for the GIMP' to 'GIMP help'  
Written by stijnb the 25 Aug 10 at 09:37. New
i would rename 'documentation for the GIMP' to 'GIMP help'.

this change will position the software directly beneath the GIMP programme, which makes it easier to find. no need to scroll down in the list. simply grouped together.

Solution #2: Remove menu item

Documentation has no place in a menu designed for applications. Remove the item and link to documention in GIMP itself.

Solution #3: Make Software Center hierarchical

Packages like this that are documentation or extensions to a particular package should be grouped under the package and probably hidden by default. Then when you select a package, show the list of sub-packages with checkboxes so you can select the options you want to install at the same time.
