Hi,

I'm just commenting on this single issue (and aspect of it…) here+now…

while I can see where you are coming from and where you want us to go, 
(and while I like the direction…) I'm not sure such a move would be
beneficial, because of unintended consequences:

motivation. being able to say "I'm the maintainer of $foo" is a *great*
motivation for many. Taking this away *might* cause a lot more harm that
gain.

cheers,
