"sponsorhip for retrying dep8 tests"

[Andreas Hasenack]

Hi,

many of you probably have been in a similar situation: you take your time
to fix a bug in package foo, upload it, and then the migration is blocked
because the dep8 tests of package bar failed. You go and check, and it's an
error in something completely unrelated to what you changed in your upload,
or a test infrastructure problem. You investigate the history of that test,
see a few cases of the same exact error, and trigger a retry. Then it
works, and you move on.

Except that when your upload was sponsored, you can't click retry. You have
to sort of get sponsorship for the retry too.

Is there a non-technical reason for sponsorees not being able to click the
retry link for their sponsored uploads?
