Support Private PPAs
Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
The history is a bit confusing, but I think this was landed in software-
properties 0.99.0, and so this bug should probably be closed. Am I
right?

I was about ready to get back to reviewing this (or just saying meh, I
don't see anything obviously wrong, so just upload it) 3 months ago when
you declared that you gave up on the MR.

Status in software-properties package in
I changed the MP over to 'Needs Review' as I think the code is in a

OK, so:
* add-apt-repository should support logging in to launchpad and adding
private ppas
* private PPAs should be added with auth.conf.d for the auth data
* to avoid having to login to launchpad on a server, something like:
- add-apt-repository should gain a --stdin switch that contains
