I am not sure if that's the right message to send to people. We want and
push anyone, including non-sponsors to review packages. We believe
everyone can learn from other people's packaging styles - for good or
not. There are quite a lot of people doing reviews and look at packages.
Your workaround complicates handling with source packages to
non-developers a lot, and even developers can be scared off by that
requirement.
A substantial problem in our whole approach is to attract Debian
Developers to sponsoring again. If we're complicating access to
packages, that's sort of counterproductive.
