(Get the code!)
Myriam: Amarok (1.4) in Kubuntu/Ubuntu 8.10 offered this option. Upon playing an mp3, it would prompt for install of restricted codecs (and install them if the user wants it). In 9.04, Amarok (2.0) doesn't do this anymore.

Note that this bug is opened against amarok (_Ubuntu_), not against the upstream project. For amarok (_Ubuntu_) it's a regression (even though Amarok 2.0 is a different beast than 1.4, it's still an upper version of the same program, which is valid for reporting a regression).
