Comment(by AntoineLatter):

 It's been a while since I tested this, but I think we already lock down
 uploading to existing packages - the only thing un-restricted is uploading
 new packages.

 So part of this is still a problem.

 I think at some point there was code to edit the list of 'uploaders' for a
 package, but I don't know where that is now.
