Absolutely. But, if we're going to this direction, then let
dput/dupload simply "ignore" .deb in the .changes, and the archive
queue processes still accepts these "partial" uploads (still checking
the .deb are in the .changes, of course), we'd have the best of both
worlds. Or am I missing something?
