Why do you think so?
Because svn is not writable by anyone, so contributor has to submit patch that someone will check/approve before it will be included.
Well, that's same as with any other "upstream" project. If you are active contributor, you can get write access. I agree, the packages for YaST and zypp are submitted in a specific way - we submit a new version instead of a package with additional patch (see http://lizards.opensuse.org/2008/11/07/yast-releases-independent-of-opensuse... releases/ for some thoughts on the matter).
Though, I had in mind regular packages provided trough oss, non-oss, update and factory repositories. Someone experimenting in his oBS home directory can provide unchecked packages even without intention to do so. Users can find them and install trough http://software.opensuse.org/search . I've just searched zypper for 11.1 and there is few. The only nick I can recognize is lrupp. The other can be zypper developers as well, but I can't recognize who's behind nick.
