I think the right thing to do is to ask the autobuild team to reject
submissions for anything that'll go into /work/SRC/all/GNOME unless it
comes from GNOME:UNSTABLE or another repository in the build service.

I think any plan for this that requires any manual merges, other than merges
within a single branch (in the terms of a proper version control system)
