  If you don't want people touching your packages, then you need to see and 
respond to bugs filed against them.  (Yes, I periodically check Bugzilla 
for bugs filed against me, regardless of the fact that email notification 
should bring them to my attention.)  If there hadn't been a bug filed 
already, then I might be prone to agree with you.  Alas, there was, and 
most people I've heard from agreed with Rex's actions.  If you don't care 
for the cooperative nature of open source software, then I'm not sure what 
to tell you -- most of us are willing to play well with others.
