But only in the Tizen layers above traditional OBS, right? In other
words, when someone submits a certain revision of a git tree containing
unpacked source plus packaging meta data. We don't have to do it like
that.

When someone modifies .bb meta data, we need to run a converter. The
current output of that converter is a .src.rpm. We can import that
directly into OBS. In fact, that's how I am currently testing that
converter tool.

The extra work for gbs would be to also import the .src.rpm into the git
tree. It's not rocket science, just cumbersome and potentially confusing
when both humans and machines end up submitting to the same git tree or
even the same branch.
