Should PPAs be forced to specify a ~ppa1 or similar in the package version?

I tend to use ~pparaphink1 for the current devel release,
~pparaphink1~release1 for backports. For named PPAs, such as Augeas, I
would use ~ppaaugeas1 and ~ppaaugeas1~release1.

That allows me to easily find the source of the packages on my system.
