Two things:

 1. It would be cool if this could be globally configured, as well as per-user configured. Religious battles aside, I have a personal preference for aptitude, and would like to encourage users on systems I administer to use it.

 2. It would also be cool if I could replace "apt-get install" with an arbitrary string, instead of just choosing between apt-get and aptitude, as well as having config frobs for whether or not sudo is necessary. In particular, I could see wanting to transition to using PackageKit in the future, so ideally I should be able to tell unprivileged users to use "pkgcon install foo" instead of "sudo apt-get install foo"
