Hi. Cool, thanks!
We have a very conservative approach to using new interfaces in dgit,
because we want dgit to be easy to get working on old systems, and
ideally for it to be easy to get a *new* dgit working. So we probably
won't change this for at least one or two Debian release cycles.
Thanks,
Ian.
