Yeah, but in the last two uploads, I didn't want to have me listed

instead of dch.

Tagging, signing and uploading should be done in one step (i.e., by
the uploader) in order to avoid inconsistencies in case the package
does need additional work before uploading.

Please don't, I think that would do more harm (in the sense of
confusion) than good. Better leave the workflow as we have it right
now.
