allow installation of new packages

Bug Description

Binary package hint: unattended-upgrades

It would be nice in "managed sites" if unattended-upgrades could be configured to
install completely new packages based on a config file. The use case for this is
described at http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/398

In that article a perl script called autoapt.pl is being used for that. I believe that
functionality is implemented better in unattended-upgrades.

I know we talked in prague about this, but I didn't come around to file a bug about this.
