What you propose is what Gnome uses. And their release process means that the 
release manager has to gather something like 70 different tarballs for each 
release. Some make the release, some don't, depending on whether the guy in 
charge is listening or not, in which case they use the one from the previous 
release (if I recall correctly). I'm still subscribed to gnome-hackers and I 
chuckle every time I see one of their "tarballs due" call :

In short : it does not work. Give it up already, please.
