[Bug 1825000] [NEW] Add ability for mirrors to distinguish interactive and non-interactive apt runs

[David Lawson]

Public bug reported:

As part of a larger scale plan to manage traffic to the main archive
servers it would be useful if apt could provide a facility for us to
identify interactive vs. non-interactive traffic on the server side,
ideally via a header of some kind.
