With the fix for this bug I'm dropping the clearly obsolete question,
but IMO adding different questions would confuse less experienced users.

I think power users who can cope with regressions caused by packages
from sources coming from sources not allowed by unattended-upgrades by
default should be able to change the u-u configuration file - or add new
configuration files overriding default values.

Optionally updating packages automatically from PPAs or unofficial
sources would be indeed be a feature that could be made available in an
easier way, but I think it would be better to track this potential
improvement in a separate bug.
