non-free will need an exception to enforced source-only uploads for packages that cannot be autobuilt. Whether contrib would get the same exception or not, it is too early to worry about. A maintainer can always request that packages be moved from contrib to non-free when required due to operational or technical reasons. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
