Binary package hint: software-center

Yesterday apt decided that universe was untrusted for some reason, trying to install something in software-center in a such case lead to have a synaptic dialog with a textview widget listed "untrusted binaries that need to be installed" and an "ok" button.
Clicking on "ok" send the user back to software-center interface with a failed installation and no explanation about the issue.

Could software-center trigger a package index update in such cases (in the current case the issue was solved with an apt-get update) or inform the user in a nice way about the issue?
