PPA should not unpublish packages while they are referenced (within the PPA) - old sources where a single arch has failed, lock-step depends on sibling packages

Bug Description
it would be nice if launchpad allowed multiple versions of a package to be present in PPA. This can be useful if another package in the PPA has dependencies on an older version of a package, not necessarily the most recent one.

I've another use case for this. I need to maintain multiple upstream versions of a set of debs for a soss distribution PPA (https:/
Even if I still end up with multiple Ubuntu PPAs to build different upstream versions, being able to copy bits from those multiple build PPAs into a single soss PPA that publishes to a single set of Artifactory repos would be a very nice improvement.
