Generally Debian users don't care about Debian maintaners' skills because 
users care only about quality of distro. A quality is the most important 
measure of any project, includes Debian project also.

If a package X is better maintaned than a package Y it does'nt mean than a 
maintaner X-man has better skills than Y-man (but it may mean that Y-man has 
less time to do it better, for example).

I am sorry but your proposition does not make sense in sense of improving 
quality of Debian distribution and may only decreasing it due to additional 
and unnecessary admin works, e-mails, etc.
