UX none and for most proprietary projects central repo is what is needed.
Hippie utopia where people publish or send changes by email to mailing list their code fixes for software they are using themselves, sharing all code, all free (not necessarily as free beer but free and reviewable). Software improvements where you can not accept some feature sent to mailing list only for your own pleasure or own decision, in contrast to SaaS where changes or "features" for software are pushed down your throat. World where everyone is his own software developer deciding exactly what codes of line his hardware is executing.
I don't mean to be derogatory with 'hippie utopia', but that view is really attractive. Though in reality I don't have time to review and merge changes for all software I am using, I would have to have life span of 1000 years probably just to do it, so I understand that is not very practical.
