If you make that a configurable option to turn on/off (default off) and
a parameter from where to fetch source to import (url for api to lookup,
download location, or so), It could possibly be merged into dak proper.
In this case, since the other archives are "trusted" (Debian's own
archives), I think the problem of these archives no longer provider
source or binary packages isn't really a concern.
It is a possibilty that the code should check for.
