I'm not sure what you are suggesting.

f-droid does builds and signs them, and ensures that the apks match the
sources and that they are entirely Free Software.  A lot of things in
the android world say they are Free Software but have non-Free
components in their apks.  People choose to use f-droid builds to avoid
this.  Often apks not from f-droid have google play services included.

Obviously it's up to f-droid people to package, but I see it as an
upstream responsibility to be buidlable with only Free Software (for
upstreams claiming that).  Right now there's a build of 4.4.4 queued,
and I expect that someone will work on 4.5.0 next.
