I think the recipe is only one point to be triggering SPN creation on.

You need a packaging branch to be merged|nested in the recipe anyway.

Letting 'bzr push lp:~lifeless/ubuntu/lucid/foo/dailies' create the
package foo would be really really useful :)

In the interests of ease of use I propose:
 - create SPN on branch push
 - add a 'create SPN' web page for folk wanting to make ones for
recipes.
 - not conflate 'recipes need a SPN' with 'when should an SPN be made'.
