Why?  Some organizations have designated employees who are the only ones
authorized to submit open-source contributions.  (This applies to
contributions under DCO and under copyright assignment.)  If GNU
development procedures cannot accommodate this contribution process,
it's potentially a significant loss to the GNU project.
