So we could in theory accept Free Software, including source code,
under a liberal license, build it AFAICT in perfect accordance with
our guidelines, and distribute only its binaries to our users.
huh? , it's right in the *definition* of opensource (see item 2):

Now, If it would make you feel better that we spell it out *explicitly*, then draft a proposal for review:
