Given that the only way to install the thing is to go to the Details
view, it doesn't seem necessary to plaster "3rd party, danger!" onto
every tile in that view.

Also, you get a pretty prominent dialog asking you to confirm that you
want to install software from a 3rd party source, if you go ahead and
click install. Sadly, system modals don't show up on screenshots it
seems, so you'll have to try yourself to see it.
