Deb Installer for Dapper.

Well in my ideal world it would work something like this

click on .deb (or maybesomething entirely different - read on) in browser,
launches a deb helper app.
This then feeds the header info of the application you are after, and then
apt gets it and installs it for you.

This is my way of also getting something that works between distros, eg you
go to mozilla.org <http://mozilla.org> click download firefox, now no matter
what distro you are using it will download, ubuntu it will call apt-get
install mozilla-firefox if you are using FC4 it will call yum (or one of the
thousand variants).

You can also have a fall back where it is not provided by the distro it then
pulls it from the providers page - even if it went as far as pulling src
then making a deb and installing that.
