I also disagree with canonicalizing the Source URL.  It will need to be
regularly updated to stay in sync, at least for GNOME URLs.

Sources are typically "automatically" updated with the expansion of the
%{version} macro, for example.  So, %{name}-%{version}.tar.bz2 for example. 
With GNOME, you see things such as:
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/file-roller/ and you need to update the
sourceball's parent directory as well.

So, 2.16.0 would have a URL of
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/file-roller/2.16/%{name}-%{version}.tar.bz2

and 2.17.0 would have one of
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/file-roller/2.17/%{name}-%{version}.tar.bz2

It's my impression we don't want to force people to do that.
