I won't reply to all of these fetch only naming patches (maybe this is
the last one,
I didn't check), so this is my last one.
My same namespace comment applies here
Actually, thinking of it more, we could even have these both with fetch-only in
the recipe name AND in a directory structure that implies the same thing.
And thirdly, maybe we could taint the tasks in some way to prevent that jumping
point to building.
Since yes, you'll get someone trying to ask for support using this to build
version 'x' of mainline. I have the battle scars to prove it :D
