In this world of SaaS, we're already sharing many of our crown jewels with other services anyway. Hosted DB's, auth services - this is just another in a long line. Some might say that data is more important than a snapshot of the code anyway (depends on the domain).
Call me old school, but I'm with you. A vendor would have to be exceptionally well regarded over a long time to get my trust in such a scenario.

But a fly-by-night outfit has no reputation at stake and probably has no ability to realize that their whole junk has been pwned by Chinese intelligence or whomever.
