Nope, you understand it correctly.  This does not mean that no QA work
gets done.  The sources are QAd before they can ever go to
updates-testing.  The updates-testing QA is a final smoke test to make
sure something really stupid didn't happen in the build process.  A lot
of the 'stupid things' a build process can do can also be auto checked
during the build and I'll be looking to enable these.

Our hope is that if this proposal scares some people, it will scare them
into finding ways to help out the project so that little to no packages
escape updates-testing w/out some QA done on it.
