Why would that be preferable? It seems to me that uploading straight to ftp-master is the most direct way to resolve the issue, because the issue is that the package is not on ftp-master. What advantage is there to go through security-master? It only seems extra noise on the debian-security-announce list, and I'm still missing the technical advantage of that.
