What's the problem this feature will solve?

If a package fails, the remaining will install.

Describe the solution you'd like

Install separately as a thread

It’s probably not easy to do the install part in parallel. The download part is already tracked in #825.

At least if a package fails to install, continue the remaining installation

That’s not a very good idea IMO…

To elaborate on this, while it is possible to install in parallel, having some packages failed and some successfully installed would cause dependency breakage. Please see GH-8187 for the discussion around parallelizing installation for better performance.
