Actually, just submitting rebase PR in Pagure dist-git, this should be
implemented although from completely different reasons. Let me explain.

If I submit my PR there are two scenarios:

1) I don't upload the sources myself, the package will become FTBFS
after the merge, since it won't find the sources

2) I upload the sources, but a) the PR never gets merged. This is waste
of resources if nothing else, but b) the sources contains something
inappropriate (we try to encourage everybody to submit PR, no matter on
experiences etc, right?), now we have the sources in cache and they need
to be expelled manually ...

Actually has the submitter always the right to upload the sources? Dunno
....

Based on this, I think this should be reconsidered.
