Comment (by apedog):

 Posting here to refer to related issue: #32101

 It suggests allowing plugins to declare as non-WP.org-repo plugins.
 Thus can still make use of auto-update API and custom repo updaters.
 And in the case of naming conflicts with the WP.org repo - will not
 suggest updates from the WP.org repo when the plugin is disabled.

 This solution of plugins self-reporting as non-WP.org is an elegant
 solution that does not require any significant changes to the updates API.
