As it stands, Shift supports apt-get, aptitude, dpkg (for downloaded packages), Synaptic and KPackage - it doesn't come any easier than that :p

If you download a .deb package, double clicking it will install it using the Debian Package Installer (or something to that effect, it's basically a GUI frontend for dpkg).
