Maybe there could be a hash table where one can register a function with
a software, similar to how autoload works. but instead of specifying
file where function is found, we could specify a sotware/package name
and a link to download/main page?
Maybe function level is too granular, maybe per feature level?

I think it's a good idea.
A minor mode that can be turned off for experienced users but on by
default and maybe with knowledge where to find the required software,
i.e. a link that Emacs can open in default a web browser for the
user. Ultimate would be to offer a download, but considering all the
distros and possible dead links, probably better to go just for download
or main page.
