I just commited the sequenced install. The UI is not perfect: it starts 
from the bottom of the list and it can't be seen if there are more items 
than the height of the dialog. And there is some nasty bug left: if I 
install several items and stop some of them, the installation is 
half-done or something like that and BT crashes when I try to use some 
modules. This should be easier to find and fix because it shouldn't 
involve concurrency. Anyone is welcome to investigate that - I'm very 
busy ATM and did even this fix in a hurry.

Please test, with any machine. More than one core/processors find thread 
related bugs maybe 100 times more efficiently, but on the other hand I 
have not tested this fix with single core at all and it may work badly 
with those.
