to me kdeplasma-addons is good as is, a set (as small as possible) of plasmoid 
that while are not the necessary core functionality have at least a minimum 
level of quality assured. there, the  difference between c++ and qml is not so 
much important, they will slowly migrate towards qml anyways.

the existence of a repository with only 3rd party qml plasmoids could make 
sense for promotional purpose, however it should be clear that:
* bugs don't go in our bugzilla
* they are not controlled by us, don't ask to us about changes/improvements to 
them
* they can disappear from there any moment, if their quality goes south, are 
unmaintained or whatever
* so no promises of stability of any kind from that repo
* if one in there is really excellent, *could* (not necessarily;) go in 
kdeplasma-addons
