I assumed that those packages would be
rejected by the archive, but clearly that's not the case.

Is it okay if source packages with non-UTF-8 file names show merely a
warning?

If that's what you think it should be, that's ok (at least for now).

The archive should probably tolerate them.

I disagree, but this bug is not the place to discuss that. If a decision is made to ban them (by ftp-master and/or policy), the severity of the tag can be adjusted accordingly later.

Cheers,

Ivo
