I think this is more about the archive tools and surrounding tooling
than any build infrastructure. But in any case, yes, it's
inconvenient.

Yes, I'll queue this for the next stable update. Note that even once
this gets uploaded and ACCEPTed by the SRMs it will still not be
available at least until the next stable point release is actually
released, and the servers running that tooling upgraded.
