The method by which Koji is made usable for EPEL may also make it
useable by rpmfusion et al.  Removing the need to "own" every package.
If/when that comes, rpmfusion can make the decision to base their
buildsystem off of software that has an active upstream and rather
important downstream (Red Hat) or something which has no upstream, and
not much downstream.  Or rpmfusion folks can take over as upstream for
plague and maintain it.
