If Bethesda/Steam know this feature is coming, they can create tools to help make it actually successful.

For example, they can require mod makers to explicitly assign a license to their work before publishing the mod. Even allow encryption/signing of mods. That alone would have vastly reduced the "this jerkwad stole my free mod and is charging for it!" problem.
