 Thanks for the comments @joyously, I appreciate it however I don't agree.

 I know it's not allowed, but you still see it happening very often at
 third-party theme sellers. Having a dedicated repo might make it more
 clear that they should be separated.

 and install block plugins directly in the editor.

 Well, that's not the same it is? It's part of another repository, what I'm
 suggesting is a separate one which doesn't exist. They're still under the
 "Plugin" title in all menu's.

 These are both the exact reason I'm opening this ticket.
