Everything you described sounds like a wonderful idea. What I had in
mind was much simpler. It (I think) does not require adding any new
features to package.el. The best way I can explain it is with the
following pseudocode, which I envision would be run when org is loaded:
(defcustom asked-already-p nil
"docstring")
(unless asked-already-p
(when (and (not (package-installed-p "org-tempo"))
(y-or-n-p "Do you like <s templates? "))
(package-install "org-tempo"))
(custom-set-and-save-variable 'asked-already-p t))

Agreed. My only concern was that users installing from git might not
have the right settings of package-archives etc to make the
package-install call above work correctly. Maybe I was being
pessimistic about that, though.
