Bug description:
As discussed in bug #739469 "Dash search unavoidably returns offensive
results" the Apps Available for Downloads section can contain apps
that may offend different demographics. Apps can be offensive because
they are explicit such as PornView or because of religious reasons or
other.
It's probably an impossible task to come up with something that is
100% safe all of the time, but we should at least reduce the risk of
embarrassing moments to an absolute minimum.
One solution could be to have the popcon ranking from the Software
center index influence the weight of the document.
