The security team does not manage dak on security-master, this is
actually ftp-masters domain. The separation has as disadantages and
advantages, one which comes to my mind idepenently on the aspect of
the one beeing security-master is to have a fallback updateing channel
in case one or the other cannot be used.

But okay that's not the point.

There is #823820 for one Built-Using aspect, but the idea might be
possible to generalize to have on every time orig tarballs from
main archive available on security-master as well.
