I think this would be rather hard to do. At least for cases where the
source is being repackaged, I think such a thing would need to be
hand-crafted, and in other cases it's not clear to me how generally useful
it is. If the maintainer wants to write one, great, but I, for instance,
usually download new upstream source in a way that it doesn't make much
sense to automate.
