Duplicating the functions of package manager in Screenlets seems a bit
too much for me. Maybe we should instead try to run tha package manager
(software center) with proper parameters from Screenlets Manager. If the
needed parameters are not implemented in package manager, we should post
a feature request to the projects developing package managers.

Ubuntu software center can even display screenshots. Probably it would
be good idea to make use of that all.

I think as the first step we implement the dialog to add PPA under "Get
More Screenlets" button, and if we have implemented running the package
manager with proper parameters, we move it to separate button to
""Install new Screenlets from PPA".
