You can use ROLE object instead of PERSON for maintaner creation (and of
course for every object, where you can reference person object). Person
is *not* required.

Well, currently is not possible to create role-maintainer pair like
person-maintainer with webuptates, but this isn't hard to implement I
think. But you can easily workaround this by creating person-maintainer
pair, then creating role, update maintainer and deleting (temporary)
person object.

With regards,
