Going in the direction of signing packages is an interesting way to
solve this.  ELPA-style repos could deliver packages signed with the
author's key and you, the user, would authorize that key.  Emacs would,
of course, come authorized for its own internal packages.  But this is
really a can of worms better spilled in emacs-devel IMO.
