Yes it would be nice but there are many reasons I would want official versions of the best. First off, game companies have little financial incentive to make modding happen. Second, most mods don't work on all platforms, such as consoles. Hopefully official versions would get wider release. Third, some financial incentives for modders, like the chance that they could sell their mod to add to the original title, would hopefully help the modding community.
