Would shipping php-7.3 from remi in the same formats that we do for 7.2 help?

For our project having rh-php73 is preferred because of package-names/dependencies.
Downside is httpd24 is a buildrequirement of rh-php73;
As said before once I figured out how to rebuild the scl-source packages (mock configuration)
they build clean without a need for change/patching.
