(With tongue firmly planted in cheek)

   Are the guys who tell you this the same ones who let RH7.0 out into
the wild (the one that was so complete it even contains the Ramen
Worm!)? 

  Seriously though.  Yeah, I can and do go the route of installing the
src rpms but I was just wondering if anyone knew of a way to pass that
one switch.  I've got to prepare a "class" so to speak on basic RPM
building/compiling and was curious if this could be added.  As for
rpmrebuild.  Even Maximum rpm doesn't have anything on that ( my copy is
about 6 months or so old though)  Interesting, that they would bother
with the name switch when all it accomplishes is confusing the heck out
of the users.  Must have been a Marketing decision *grin*.
