jenkins-2.0-alpha
When the plugin installed wizard is installing plugins, it shows a plugin in black and then it can have other plugins with ** in front that are grey. It is unclear that these grey plugins are the dependencies. There is also a lot of wasted whitespace area during this time as well. The whole area to the left of the installing list is just blank. More information could be provided in that space during install. Perhaps some tips on using Jenkins.

[JENKINS-33246] It is unclear that the items with ** are dependencies during plugin install on 2.0
I think alpha 3 changes the presentation of these dependencies a bit. Is it better now?
The **'s during install are still there. See attachment for what I am describing.
slide_o_mix (Somewhat unrelated) Are there no boxes in the grey area to the left of it at all? There should be one box per plugin you selected to be installed…
There is NOTHING in the gray area to the left as is shown in the screenshot.
kzantow I imagine it wouldn't be particularly difficult to add a message below the progress bar that explains that selected plugins and their dependencies are being installed, with a minor change to presentation in the list. WDYT?

added a comment - Expectation: Describe what the indicator ** means. It should be clear what are dependencies of the user's selection.
Planned approach to resolution:
- Text description in console or somewhere around the console
Not in scope:
- Displaying the plugins that caused the install

danielbeck I've added a sort of footnote section to the console log, please check the screenshot and PR https://github.com/jenkinsci/jenkins/pull/2159 to determine if this is sufficient. I believe the text should be around the console log (rather than elsewhere), as that's where the indicator is actually being used.

Also, enjoy all the additional dependencies from
JENKINS-33296. May be bad enough that we need to require fairly recent core dependencies for plugins in this dialog, otherwise they'd have giant dependency lists.
