After talking with Julian, in addition to bug 496862, simply adding the copy/delete menu items to the index page will help to some degree.

But the issue will remain that the index page is trying to help users evaluate: "Do I want to add this PPA to my system, and if so, how". We could investigate an option such as:

If the index URL is requested AND
the current user is a dev (?) AND
the REFERER is not within /~person/+archive
THEN
redirect to '+packages'.

Or something similar. But I'd be *very* wary of doing something like that. It can seem very unpredictable if you don't expect it.
