Ah right, that makes a lot of sense.
I can imagine automatically detecting the new upstream release, building
that, and presenting the packager with a easy-to-review PR that you just
click "merge" on instead of pointing the specfile at a new tarball.
This already basically happens, at least for things that are hooked up
to anitya:

You get a bug report with a patch attached, and it runs a scratch
build. This is great for simple release bumps, but there's still all
sorts of cases where it's not enough or you're just doing something
else.
