Using the proposed repository may cause problems and is therefore not recommended for the broad mayority of users. The normal user should not be able to activate this repository by just a single click. Please remove that possibility or at least provide a warning/information about the consequences. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareUpdates#settings>: "The “When checking for updates, check for:” menu should contain options for “All updates” (the default, -security + -updates + -backports), “Security and recommended updates” (-security + -updates), and “Security updates only” (-security) (fixing bug 887079). If your current update config does not match one of those three options (for example, if you have opted in to -proposed), there should be a fourth, checked, option: “Custom”, and this option should persist until you close System Settings. (UI for configuring -proposed should be provided by the Ubuntu Contributor Console.)"
