Regression
Yes
"Burst package has been removed, please restart the Editor" pop up after uninstalling a package
Reproduction steps:
1. Create a new Project
2. Open Package Manager (Window -> Package Manager)
3. Install 2D Animation package from Unity registry
4. Remove the package
Expected result: the package gets removed, if the editor needs to be restarted, it prompts to restart and restarts
Actual result: the package gets removed, a pop up that informs the editor needs a restart appears (Burst package removed), you can click 'OK' but the editor does not restart, it is unclear if it needs a restart
Reproducible with: 2021.2.0a20, 2021.2.11f1, 2022.1.0b7, 2022.2.0a1
Not reproducible with: 2019.4.36f1, 2020.3.28f1, 2021.2.0a19, 2022.2.0a2, 2022.2.0a3
Reproducible on Windows 10 and Ubuntu 20.04 (did not test Mac)
Notes:
1. The issue is fixed in 2022.2.0a2
2. Package version seems to have no effect on this since 2022.2.0a3 and 2022.1.0b7 offer the same package version for 2D Animation, but it has something to do with the package itself (I could not find any other packages that cause this)

Whoever said "expected" behaviour did not read the first sentence, it appears. This says that Burst was *REMOVED* and to restart the editor. This is misleading, as it wasn't *actually* removed. Not only that, you don't even need to restart the editor. The same occurs when you change URP versions. Burst is coupled to other packages and isn't very smart when it comes to changing versions/pkgs.
TL;DR: Unity staff didn't read the post; it's still a bug in 2022 LTS.

- The third and later list elements are displayed incorrectly when they are expanded

- UI system does not register a MouseDownEvent event when clicking on the Value attributes of the TextField
- Directional lights are cut off by a sharp edge when passing behind a volumetric cloud
- Directional lights flicker when placed at the edge of a volumetric cloud
Resolution Note:
This is the expected behaviour as far as burst is concerned, we clearly say to restart the editor and we don't restart it because the user might not want to restart at that point in time and we thought it wasn't our place to make that decision, hence the "Please restart the Editor".
