I think adding a manual co-maintain filter is enough for now (option 2 without special UI). I do not really need a special button etc, just somehow an option to show the packages. This way the feature could be implemented possibly simple while keeping the UI idea open for now. (However I like the idea of the "Packages I Co-Maintain" section idea).
