Sure. Given we're so close to the UI freeze for F21 we'll have to
either punt this to F22, but I think that's fine unless F21 turns out
to be a long time coming.
I will check with legal if there are any implications in turning the
software app into a application that searches the web for Fedora sofware
as opposed to a front-end to specific repositories.
It might be as simple as just getting the software center to download
something like this at runtime:
https://github.com/hughsie/fedora-appstream/blob/master/appstream-extra/t...
-- i.e. it's metadata, but metadata that's downloaded at runtime
rather than shipped with the package. That example is a web-app, so no
repo configuration is present, but it would be fairly easy to add a
EULA text and some repo parameters to that XML format.
