The PPA page includes this warning:
"Only add software repositories from sources that you trust!"

To me it's obvious that you only install stuff from PPAs either when
somebody who you trust suggests it or after having asked the PPA owner
first. Should something along those lines be added to the PPA page? I
don't know...
