The purpose of having the distinction of unknown sources is so that
unscrupulous developers will have a harder time writing code with
viruses or other maleware.  If it were easy to disable that
distinction then the distinction would be worthless.  I can't think of
any legitimate reason why you would need to disable this warning.  I
currently have an app that I am selling directly without the Market,
and I clearly state in my installation instructions to the user that
this warning will appear.  As long as they trust me and the channel
with which they acquired the APK file then they can proceed with the
installation despite the warning.  They understand the risks of
installing from "unknown sources" and accept them.  Why would you want
to hide that information from the users?
