- not part of the specfile (but additional metadata), so:
  i) also amounts to an additional thing to fill out (with the potential to
     get forgotten),
  ii) cannot be verified during review (for new packages),
  iii) has to be filled in after the review is completed (which increases
       the potential that it gets forgotten for new packages).

This does not mean that it could not possibly work, but this drawback has to 
be kept in mind.
