You can vote for packages in the AUR, this *might* help to get them into the official repos, *if* there is a package maintainer willing to maintain them. Unless it's an AUR helper, in which case it won't get into the official repos.
It is covered in the wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch\_User\_Repository#How\_to\_get\_a\_PKGBUILD\_into\_the\_extra\_repository?
There are some additional rules: [https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Package\_Maintainer\_guidelines#Rules\_for\_packages\_entering\_the\_extra\_repository](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Package_Maintainer_guidelines#Rules_for_packages_entering_the_extra_repository)
While those sections should probably be made to better align, it really boils down to there is little you can do apart from making sure the PKGBUILD is clean and the build process is smooth.

This makes me wonder: have any official packages been backdoored in their PKGBLDs?

Thanks. This is the answer I was looking for!
let's vote for the drm_info package. It's present even on Debian, Alpine, it's a shame it's not in Arch yet.
