Hmm, I had already pondered about this when I saw the announcement. So, while I agree such option would make life easier for people that want to do “almost-source-only uploads” right now (because TBH the other alternatives are very annoying), on first thought this seemed to be a very non-generic and DAK specific option, and less useful if this is going to be a short temporary situation. But then there's (AFAICS) only two missing combinations in the tools, source+arch-dep and source+arch-indep, so I guess if I add both, then it keeps being quite generic. :) I'll try to include this for 1.17.11, which I'm planning to release RSN.
