Two things I see with this: 1) I can rebuild any package without a maintainer's permission; That's going to be a problem in some cases. 2) We'd have to make 110% sure that a script that rebuilds the SRPMs and bumps the release correctly; often there are some packages that have problems with auto-bumped release. This could be solved through more stringent packaging guidelines.
