Given that source-only uploads require larger changes to the infrastructure (arch:all autobuilder, approval and action by the ftp-team), the former seems to be more likely to be possible in the near future. It seems that for the versioning, there is not much we can automatically. I guess in most cases it is fine if wb just picks the next unused number. If it turns out that a the newest version is in the wrong suite then a binNMU in the other fixes that.
