bf-extensions is separate from bf-blender precisely because it's
intended as a place where user/community can improve on existing
scripts. There is a fairly strict policy on what goes into bf-extensions
trunk and what stays into contrib. There is a way of showing warnings to
users for scripts downloaded and installed from ie. contrib, whether
there are issues with it or not.

Now, if you're talking about bf-blender SVN, that even got a clean-up
before the migration. It still isn't _that_ easy to get write access to
bf-blender SVN.

I don't foresee any drastic code quality reduction compared to what we
already have

Can't say I've seen disturbing development in bf-blender or
bf-extensions - and where bugs are found, patches can be made to improve.
