Integrate the WinGet client with SmartScreen
Description of the new feature / enhancement
I'd like WinGet to be able to warn users when they encounter potentially dangerous URLs.
Proposed technical implementation details
Integrate the WinGet client with SmartScreen.
Handling this within the package manager would allow for a better user experience. instead of getting the package downloaded, then having to click on a prompt, the package manager could add this prompt earlier in the process. Possibly even having a switch, config file entry, or other means to automate clearing the prompt. Right now, having to click this prompt might be a blocker for large instuttions trying to use software that isn't approved by SmartScreen, and this feature might remove that blocker.
