It's something that could potentially be implemented, but no, it's not possible at the moment.
Unfortunately it would also be quite difficult, because the package buffer uses tabulated-list-mode for its structure.
Ok for folding in org mode. But what do you think about some kind of virtual packages. Instead of displaying all of flycheck packages, simply an entry flychek-packages and pressing enter/what ever key would display a new buffer with all the packages in it.
That sounds very plausible, but it's still quite a delicate structural change. I think I'd be more comfortable if that were implemented as a separate package somehow.
Ok. I'll look into in when I'll have time
There are keywords in package descriptions which you can click, flycheck is one of them
Strange I had missed that up to now... Very convenient feature, even if the keywords are a bit too wide.
For instance, if I look into the flycheck package, its keywords are convenience, languages, and tools (even if avy-flycheck has a flycheck keyword, not all flycheck-related packages do ...). So I guess it's up to package maintainer (and maybe repo ?) to update their keywords.

yes, these are written in the code, so you always can make a pull request :)
Hi,
Is is possible to display the list of packages not flat but in a hierarchical manner (in similar way to what's is done in org mode) according to some regex/tagging ?
For instance, all the packages for flycheck could be under a same entry, same goes for company, counsel, ... That way, I would be easier to browse the list of packages and discover relevant packages.
Thanks !
