Most maintainers don't pay close enough attention to their packages as it is to notice when their packages *aren't* ready for testing because of arch-specific build failures; I think expecting maintainers to tag packages as being testing-worthy would just make it harder to get needed package fixes to get into testing. -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer
