I believe current measures work fine: check distfile availability, routinely run the port on tinderbox. What we are doing right now is enough; no need to make "maintained by ports@" mean anything particularly bad or unsafe.

Personally, I think of ports@ as being "maintained by Ports Fury, but they do not mind if I touch it sometimes". ./danfe
