Pesonally I am against any package manager interaction when it is about installing packages where the legal state is not 100% clean for openSUSE.
I think openSUSE must not provide any kind of semi-automated installation of legally problematic software.
So how do you determine which software is "legally problematic"? For example... in the USA there are several patents that prevent certain things to be included in linux distributions, but in germany software patents do not exist. So the only way to technically do what you suggest would be to completely prevent the installation of software, except for packages that come from the official openSUSE repositories. ...then how would one install such things as SAP or oracle or any other commercial software?
