Complete!

I verified all new features.

Can i suggest to make installation process in background? Otherwise i can't do any other action on webui if installation process is long (low bandwidth, big or many packages selected..)
Should i feel a new task?

This is exactly why the UI is blocked: to prevent other actions during installation process.
There is no lock mechanism between events so there is no way to prevent signalling of two concurrent, and maybe breaking, events.
