In general I would still like to focus on software *people* compile often enough to get annoyed by slow native builds. Eg. to cut down the edit-compile-run-debug cycle time. Some obscure software that nobody uses but still takes ages to compile on buildds would be nice to cross-compile, but to who? For the official archives these packages still need to be compiled natively.
