Bug Description
The UbuntuOne guys have a very cool 'Add PPA' button in their
startup instructions. It's a link to an apt:// URL that installs a
package, adding a file with the appropriate deb lines for their PPA
to /etc/apt/
really awesome if Launchpad created packages like this automatically
and showed an 'Add PPA' button on PPA pages.
summary: |
- An 'Add this PPA' package should be installable directly from PPA pages, - adding an item to /etc/apt/source.list.d + An 'Add this PPA' link should appear on PPA pages using AptURL |

Do you mean that PPAs would have a link for "Add this PPA" that is an AptURL link? I think this is a great idea.
AptURL's PPA functionality is disabled for "security concerns", though, and the + format doesn't work.
