Hi Patrick, In fact, Sonatype will let you publish non o.a.xx dependencies since they are an approved forge as well for Central sync. So you can sign up for an account there, but it's always good to get the buy in of the specific community of the upstream dependency so they are aware.
These types of things though can be addressed over time and as each release improves.
