This basically the same as saying the whole notion of Signed-off-by
should be abandoned entirely, since in this case the fork will only have
a partial set of these.
The point is that we're recording information so each line in the
repository can be traced back to a SOB.
These sorts of take-downs would destroy that information, and the
proposed solution of having some party retain these creates a special
class of free software users who are capable of following that line of
attributions.
