Well, I think that having all sponsor be uberpackager is enough to give
them enough rights to touch the sponsoree packages, and it would be
consistent with 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/Policy/WhoIsAllowedToModifyWhichPackages#afterinclude
to have them able to touch almost everybody packages.

(in fact, many packagers who aren't considered to be "Experienced
packagers" will be uberpackagers, although they are not necessarily up
to the task, just because it was the only possible status in the past).

But what would still be missing would be something that allow to setup
watchbugzilla and watchcommit per-person and not per-package, such that
someone can monitor someone else new packages/packages the person
co-maintains. The sponsor would automatically monitor the person 
he sponsored (and could stop do so when he wants to).
