And this is exactly why they and others can be reluctant to release their
code. What works for them may not be usable for others (in its current
working state), yet people assume that the code release implies that it
should be usable by others.

Well, you will always find someone who ignorant enough to think a source release is like a product release and bitch and moan that it isn't tailored to their every need (and they are unwilling/unthankful enough to not fix minor issues and send patches)

That shouldn't stop anyone. That is just the way the internet works.

PS. Being AGPL fixes for distro specific issues will appear very soon if it becomes popular.
