I'm not aware of any method to add a third party plugin repository. (Is the software that runs the plugin repository even open source?)
I don't know, but I guess the reason why it isn't done yet is because nobody perceives it as a problem. It would require a repository plugin to install plugins I think. But it all comes down to plugin distribution and deployment. Mostly if you want something outside the default repository you can just upload it to your own install / stack. If a developer provide alternative download ways. Like a github release for example.
