Would it be a bad thing to require all uploads that need to go through
NEW (source and binary) to target experimental?

I have been doing this for my own, and sponsored, uploads for some
years already.  There's usually some reason for another upload after
acceptance anyway; e.g. source upload for arch:all, breaking changes
in toolchain or other dependencies, symbols file needs tweaking,
autopkgtest needs tweaking, bump Standards-Version, update
debian/copyright years, etc.
