Thanks for following up on this. I had two other ideas about it since we
spoke:
1. Maybe it should be a part of apt-key, since it's just a trivial wrapper
around it
2. It would be great to fetch the appropriate key for a particular PPA from
Launchpad, rather than specifying the key ID, e.g.:
sudo apt-key add-ppa https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
desktop/+archive/ppa
or perhaps even:
sudo add-ppa https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
desktop/+archive/ppa
(which would also take care of the sources.list entries)
