I agree, I also agree about the source not having to be part of the
same package.
During system installation I would at least give the option to install
source for all binary packages included in the first system install.
I know not everybody has the gigabytes to spare, but I would choose
that option on some setups, to be able to quickly change my system
regardless of network connectivity.
