On the other hand, I can *currently* upload my own packages as src+bin with 
a binary I built inside qemu and no one would ever be the wiser. 

I don't see much difference in that respect, unless you are arguing for 
src+bin uploads with sources autorebuild on *all* architectures (which 
incidentally, I believe I would be all for).
