I think this idea is additive not contrary.

I still would like to be able to send and receive issues and pull-requests, to/from anyone.

Your idea here seems to be about how to encode the data. You talk about web interfaces & who is allowed to do what. But it's not clear to me how my repo/forge gets my PR in front of you. The social networking technology feels like it has to come into play somewhere, and I don't see that as described in your system.
