Description
At the moment the installoptionalpackage -a option accepts only one parameter.
By allowing it to accept multiple parameters it would be more convenient to add several packages to the system.
This possibly allows prevention of double installs, too, in the case that several packages have the same dependency.

It was actually easier to implement both this and #5248 at once. The attached patch will correctly determine all of the dependencies for a particular package. It also allows the user to specify multiple packages to add :
installoptionalpackage -a "Git Subversion NetSurf"
This patch is large and fairly ugly. Would it be preferred for me to submit multiple smaller patches to be applied in succession?
