This won’t work as DEBFULLNAME/DEBEMAIL is what goes into the changelog, not what the uploads are signed with.
In my case, DEBEMAIL is andrewsh@collabora.co.uk for some packages, but I don’t have that key in the Debian keyring.
And I want to keep it that way. The usual upload workflow allows this, as does dgit.
