If that logic doesn't end up being too complicated and hard to
maintain, I would certainly like that.

I think that boat has sailed already... If you look, for example, at

  https://github.com/kubernetes/
  https://github.com/kubevirt/
  https://github.com/kata-containers/

you'll see that a lot of the repositories living in those
organizations have pretty generic names, so much so that you can
already spot conflicts at first glance, plus as I said we have
stuff like

  https://gitlab.com/libvirt/hooks
  https://gitlab.com/libvirt/scripts

in our own organization already, so I wouldn't worry too much about
this.

Personally, what I usually do when cloning such a repository is
rename the clone of $org/$repo to $org-$repo right away and then I
never have to even think about it again. It's really not a big deal.
