It does sound a *little* overengineered for no good reason. (IMO).
How about starting to do that for your own packages and see how it works
out. If it turns out to be great people will join and it will spread and
at some point be something we could even enforce. Would also give this a
little practice test to see if what you want from people is worth the
work/trouble dealing with it.
