As everyone is so afraid of the damage provenpackager can do I want to 
propose something else:
Provide a possibility for maintainers to open their package for 
***EVERY*** packager. I would love to do this.  And do you know why?
Because I want to see some community growing and people trying to fix 
things even if they DO mistakes. How can someone learn if he didn't try 
to do it?
I would prefer if someone fix 3 things and break one because I will have 
to fix only 1 thing not 3 :). And after pointing the problem to the 
author it won't happen again ( I believe). 

P.S. Please don't tell me that I don't care for this packages because 
I'm upstream author for this packages and I invested my free time in 
them before started at Red Hat.
