It's fine. Ubuntu developers could sync a local tree of the software in 
Launchpad and patch those features only locally if they are rejected upstream.

 Dear developers,
 
 USC is getting old. It is in Python 2, and probably will never be ported to
 Python 3.
 
 I suggest dropping USC in future Ubuntu releases and adopt GNOME Software.

 GNOME Software is build on newer GNOME technologies. It, of course, needs
 some modifications to support the same features which are supported by USC,
 like purchasing applications.

That'd require GNOME to be willing to have an extensibility factor to allow 
for USC features to be incorporated into it.
 
 I suggest putting a roadmap for this to see if it's possible or not.
 
 Thanks a lot!
