As a developer of a Python package, I don't see how this would be better.
The developer would still have to get their software into some kind of
uniform configuration, so the central authority could package it. You've
moved the problem from, "everyone has to make wheels" to "everyone has to
make a tree that's structured properly." But if we can do the second
thing, the first thing is really easy.
Unfortunately, I disagree with you one that and others already gave
explanations why.
Internally, we had this "wild-west" tree in our source as well but we
moved on to a properly structured tree and it solved problems we didn't
even imagine to have solved when starting this effort some years ago.
