the default build command being such that a package rebuild is 
not pushed to the freeze seems enough to me. With proper documentation
and agreed guidelines that packages should be rebuilt using the special
command that push then to the freeze only if really needed.

Everyone is notified when packages are pushed. Why more? To help people
watching releases, there could be a mail showing what was pushed to the 
freeze containing only that information (the mail showing what was pushed
in extras is for all the releases).

Why not let the maintainers decide by themselves and let people
blame on the lists where the build reports appear?
