And who will do the review? And if someone does the review and it passes, why not let *everyone* use the result in a straight forward way, and push it to Factory?
There are additional costs of getting things into Factory not everyone is willing to pay.
Does Factory really need 3rd party repos? I can definitely work without any.

Just one example. And while I have been helping keeping this up to date, I'm clearly not going to maintain this for Factory or Leap.
Updating packages in Leap still takes too much effort. For Factory, the process is trivial, update in the devel project, forward,
