I think it's foolish to attempt to impose that policy across every
package.  If the various maintainers of a particular package want to
make that agreement between each other, that's fine.  If the
maintainers of a different package don't want to have any kind of
primary maintainer, then that's fine to.

And yet somehow we have Extras chugging along just fine with exactly
that rule, and the only thing to prevent such chaos is the various
agreements that maintainers make with each other.
