Comment (by jamesking56):

 Thanks @Clorith for adding your comments to this, very helpful.

 My intention is for web agencies mostly. If you manage 100+ WordPress
 sites as an agency, you will most likely be looking for a way to ensure
 that WordPress.org doesn't go down and affect all of your customers. So,
 just would be nice to configure and host your own mirror to enable all
 100+ sites to access approved plugins, themes etc. in the same datacenter.

 That's the idea for me, just the first step by allowing WordPress to open
 up by allowing you to point it to a different API. It would be totally
 down to the agency to then develop the API responses to match what
 WordPress.org's API responses look like.
