This is also something I thought about. It's really easy with git to just fork a project and do a pull request upstream if you wanted to contribute something to the original project. I get the feeling too many people would bypass that latter part and just hope their changes catch on to some as-of-yet unfulfilled niche of users of the original to keep their fork maintained - needlessly fragmenting the program and its userbase as a whole so they can get their 15 minutes of fame and satisfied delusions of grandeur. Maybe I'm just too cynical...
