A bot would be nice, but I think we're unlikely to get this in the
near future. I think it would be useful to start with a helper script to:
- identify all dependent packages that need to be rebuild
- if possible figure out build dependencies (i.e. the cases where we know
  that some package will fail to build until some other package in the
  set has been rebuilt),
- suggest a build order
- start builds in a side tag

Then you could ask a proven packager to just run the rebuild command,
even if you don't have the privileges yourself.

If we ever want to write a bot for this, this script will be a good
starting point…
