I haven't thought this through at all but are you aware of any package repositories that do something like levenshtein distance between package names maybe combined with a heuristic on common mistyped characters to not allow typosquatting?
They also have the concept of verified publishers[2], which is pretty neat (similar to Maven Central), and keep track of a score for each package (e.g. https://pub.dev/packages/darq/score) including up-to-date dependencies and result of static analysis.
