This assumes that the maintainer has seen the nmu get done, and has then gone
the extra step(s) of fetching the source from the archive.

Of course, if the maintainer has done changes locally to their source, then
this will cause them extra work.

As always, when *EVER* an nmu is done, send communication.  Don't just blindly
upload(even to delayed).
