I'm not sure if it's really useful to have this as a default - for
example i keep nagios-3 packages intentionally ~arch for now. Tagging
them as "not ready for stabilization yet" would introduce something
between ~arch masked and package.mask - i don't think that's worth the
effort.

From both a maintainers and arch-developers view: I'd like to see
automatically generated stable requests, but I'd leave it up to the
maintainer/herd/team to add architectures after a quick review (also if
there's a auto-stable-request tag set in metadata!).
