Add/Remove For Non-Geeks

Goal: Make searching other repositories easier for non-geeks.
I open Add/Remove to search for software "XYZ"...
Because my software was not found in the default enabled repository I am prompted with a window reading "Ubuntu was unable to locate this software in the Officially Supported repositories.
Would you like to continue your search in other repositories? (Yes/No)"
Choosing "Yes" opens a new window which allows me to select which repositories I want to continue my search in. (universe/multiverse/restricted/etc)
- It would be nice if the selected repositories were remembered for next time.
- It would also be nice to have an option to automatically search my selected repositories without being prompted.
Thank you.
