    Description

      The installation flow for QBSP packages could be improved further.

      Currently, when user adds a QBSP to the installer, the new components are included in the installer tree, but user doesn't have any help finding the new component from the tree. This makes is hard to know which component they should then select for the installation.

      For B2Qt releases, we are starting to extract the QBSPs to online repositories in order to save build time. This means that the same installer scripts are used in both online repo content and QBSP content.

      If we can differentiate packages installed from online repos vs. QBSP, we could add installer scripts to e.g. expand the installer tree to make the components visible or select all the components in the QBSP so user doesn't need to do that or something else.
