Doing reviews may make it easier to find a sponsor.

You can always contribute a full review and point out whether you _would_
approve the package and add that you are not permitted to approve packages

It's okay. Don't forget the FE-NEEDSPONSOR keyword. 
It might be that some of the packages raise different interest.
Submitting too many review requests could backfire, too, however,
if they don't raise the interest of enough reviewers.
