I think you're dreaming. For most packages this level of familiarity
isn't necessary.
I confess that I am only familiar in any detail with the source to a
small subset of my packages. (That doesn't mean I can't fix some
upstream bugs if upstream is awol of course.) If this makes me a bad
maintainer please nominate the packages you want to adopt.
