may be difficult from a legal perspective. You still have to display
license texts or what ever.

Not sure I understand the problem. Don't we - as developers - face the same
challenge with each and every dependency we pull into our project from
Maven Central? In each case we need to check (manually) if the license is
compatible with what we want. This is no different. When we include
something at build time it's us as developers who accept licenses, not the
end user. That is one big difference between a Maven Repo Server and an
Update Center.
