Given the ease of something like klik:// and kio slaves, how hard would yast:// be implement. It's not like you can accidentally have someone messing up your system, since they would need su access to add it as a source. Of course it's the usual effort v use, since you don't really add sources all that often, but I always thought the apt:// kio slave in Debian was under utilized since it could theoretically be integrated into help files and instructions.
