Public bug reported:

In testing out the new unattended-upgrades behaviour I was asked an
unexpected question about the "unattended-upgrades Origin-Pattern". This
is not a great experience, it doesn't match anything other than internal
code patterns.

For example, the default offered does NOT look like a sensible Ubuntu
default for Ubuntu users:

  "origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename},label=Debian-Security";___

Is that correct, or a mistake?

What I would expect is simply this:

 Install security updates (Y/N)
 Install performance and reliability updates (Y/N)
 Install updates from unofficial archives (Y/N)

The latter would map to all PPAs etc.
