Yes there are plans to do something like this. Package signing has to come first. Crowd sourcing isn't a great approach, partly for the trust issues, but also because no one will built on !$my_platform, and cross compiling is far from trivial.
It's a bit trickier than it seems, but not rocket surgery. If you're interested in taking this on, let me know. If not, it'll come eventually, but not until some other higher-priority things get done first.
