So I've gone and done that (twice), the result of all debdiffs is exactl
identical:

This show that the change (but also that the revert) is harmless.
Frankly, I'd find the "explicit no-go therefore imposing a revert" quite
silly in this specific case.

That's technically correct. I'd find it quite sad to postpone a
migration to testing for d-i-n-i, especially as every d-i upload [or at
the very least, the final d-i] will impose a d-i-n-i upload and
migration, again.

Using http.debian.net accelerates my builds by a big margin. I don't
care enough though, so feel free to commit a change.
Cheers,
