The add-apt-repository command is from the softwareproperties-common package. It has associated GUI packages. softwareproperties-kde softwareproperties-gtk These allow you to import key manually and add repository. I did not check for the manual addition of repository source case, but when I added and removed the non-free archive via GUI, the "apt-cache ... " result changed indicating the GUI program run "apt-get update" equivalent in the background. I did not check if installation of key has dialogue for verifying its authenticity... if not, adding such functionality may be what you need.
