Everyone else: what do you think?
Without thinking about it too hard, it generally seems like something worthy of looking at.
I'd note a slight concern from our own (Firefox) experience with similar things in antivirus software, where new releases of Firefox are sometimes blocked because whatever reputation scheme they're using is too specific to just the filename/contents. But this is probably a pretty specialized concern.
Is there any data on how effective this is? If a user thinks they want the latest screensaver / toolbar sketchyware, do these kinds of systems and warnings actually help, or do users just end up ignoring them?
