It would be even better to talk to the PackageKit team for standardization ;-) (We're already working on this to support some APTd features (Fix broken package DB for example) - most other things are already present.) You can change the PK settings using PolicyKit. Limiting installations to a group of packages is not possible at time. (and not planned - what if a package in group X requires a package of group Y? Users could easily work around this limitation by creating a dummy package in group X which pulls in the package from group Y, which they want.)
