This isn't a hard and fast rule, but we generally like to see that the entire enclosure is available on Central. You would need to introduce not just the pluginRepo, but probably a regular repo and that's where problems start. That repo then pollutes the downstream resolution for other artifact lookups and this is what causes people problems.

Say I need a plugin for my release process that's not available from repo1.maven.org. How would the inclusion of a plugin repository affect the users of my artifact? Or why else is it not allowed to add a plugin repository?
