Public bug reported:

Maybe you want to only allow package installs of software from Ubuntu
Software Center and disallow any package installs from third-party
sources.

Have a setting dialog where a user is presented with a choice such as the one below.
-- Packages --
Allow applications downloaded from:
* Ubuntu repository
* Ubuntu repository and PPA
* Anywhere
