This is a really nice idea: A DD with a strange sense of humour could "enable an extra feature" in their binary package, that is not in the source code - at least not in the uploaded source. Could be a virus, a Trojan horse, a root kit, a time-bomb. As >= 95% of our users have i386, it's easy to generate nice damage. Security-wise, binary uploads are no go.
