#11652: Hiding installed packages is confusing

 Use case:
 * Open HaikuDepot
 * Search for some app you don't have installed (eg. beae)
 * Click install button
 * Package is downloaded and installed
 * Since "show installed packages" is not checked, once install is done,
 package disapears from search list, but is still selected

 It is confusing that installed packages completely disapear from the list.
 Maybe installed packages should be shown as 'disabled' items in the list
 and/or moved to the end of it, rather than completely hidden?
