Archive consistency is far more important than individual maintainer
preference about this behavior.  People that work on lots of different
packages deserve dpkg-source to act consistently across the entire
archive.

This would be far better solved with a system conffile of some sort
like /etc/dpkg/dpkg-source.cfg, which admittedly doesn't exist yet.

Best wishes,
