I'm sorry, Uploaders has no "function" except when combined with DM-Upload-Allowed. One can perfectly upload a package without being in the Uploaders in the default case. It makes sense to put a common identity either in Maintainer: or in Uploaders: so that one can check the state of all packages of this entity in the corresponding DDPO (qa.debian.org/developer.php) page.
