No, but it is a reality. Mods have been around for quite some time..but until the open-development era they were just there. The way things are done, mods are just common-place now, therefor it is easier to assume what the public is willing to do with their time. Not so easy to tell a developer to do.
Besides why contemplate something that amounts to little more than suspecting devs would take advantage of free(maybe not studio quality) ideas..many times(prior experience) these mods are redone/or backed up by the devs.
