Actually, I think we should consider serious limits to any such proposal, such as (as Gilles suggested) working only with reputable employees (or ex-employees, like Aaron Arcos) of reputable companies. Otherwise I suspect "any developer" will game the system for their own benefit, for example to get free training or to pad their resume.
I would ordinarily be vary wary about limiting or restricting who we collaborate with, but given that our code base is open source and we welcome patches from everyone, making such a limitation seems workable for the very practical purpose of making sure the relationships are as productive as possible.
