That's really the right long-term approach, IMO.  I'd like to some day see
source-only uploads, with wheel builds for various supported platforms
appearing "automatically" via the build farm.

But ultimately you're right.  If we don't have source available from
*somewhere* (with PyPI being the most obvious and easiest location for
downstreams), then oh well, you won't get your package into some Linux
distros, and your users will have to roll their own.
