Again a someone is not happy situation.
All true. But the current situation is similar. I may ask Mr. build-machine-admin to install package X that conflicts with package Y that someone else needs. If Mr. admin is not aware that Y is currently in use, someone is unhappy. My suspicion is that this won't happen often enough to worry about. Once it does happen often enough, a more complex solution -- perhaps involving pbuilder -- could be instituted.
