Yes. The only annoying bit for you, going community module, is that
the package won't be available for releases,
but only among nightly build downloads, e.g.:
https://build.geoserver.org/geoserver/2.15.x/community-latest/
https://build.geoserver.org/geoserver/master/community-latest/

For a community module, none. For an extension, an indication of how many
users are using it in production (we'll trust you, if you can share some
details better).
