My understanding is that using a .buildinfo means that the right
snapshot needs to be added to the sources.list. TTBOMK, neither pbuilder
nor sbuild handles sources.list in any way.

I think this is a fine line to separate area of concerns. Having a
wrapper that will process .buildinfo and mangle the build chroots before
calling a tool to perform the build itself sounds fine.

srebuild should be in the sbuild package though, but that's justthe way
it is with the sbuild reproducible repository.
