Bug Description

I try a lot of different applications that end up unused cluttering my applications -menu so I came up with an idea of having an "uninstall this application" option in the applications -menu when right-clicking some application's icon.

This would be very useful since I use finnish translated version of ubuntu, and program names in the menu don't usually match the name of the actual application. By having this easy uninstall option, I would avoid having to go through the trouble of solving the program's actual name.

The option wouldn't obviously be present if the user doesn't have proper permissions.

Once selected, the option would then open a "these packages will be uninstalled" -dialog or synaptic with the proper packages already selected for uninstallation.
