This would definitely work, however it creates an extra layer. I think
a key challenge with Pagure today is that as Matthew pointed out, the
front page is very intimidating. I also find the search to be very
non-intuitive. The displays of repos i'm in/watching/etc. is also
sorted in a way that isn't obvious to me and I find that private forks
sometimes rank higher than their upstreams.

I wonder if we could find people interested in cleaning up the interface
a bit more as I know that Pingou and team are busy. I also wonder if
fedora.pagure.io or pagure.fp.o wouldn't be a better home for Fedora
specific stuff.
