This is a bit of a stale thread.  This particular package was modified
to remove the SRC_URI, so it is no longer outstanding.  The Trustees
have discussed, and i'd say a majority would prefer not to have
SRC_URI for fetch-restricted files.  However, I don't believe we put
it to a vote.

Personally, I tend to not see an issue here, but am open-minded to
specific precedents/etc that raise concerns.  I think others are a bit
more conservative.
