Thanks for the vouch of confidence! Anyway, the package would be
maintained by the release team, and there should always be somebody
available to make a oh-so-trivial upload. Or somebody completely
different -- we know how to cover up for other people, ejem.

Feel free to pursue the idea, then, really, I'm just not interested in
*doing* it myself, whereas I'm interested in doing the package upload
dance. And this is Debian, after all.
And I'm leaving /etc/debian_version untouched, so it could be migrated
to Anthony's scheme if that turns out to besuccessful. But,
/etc/lsb-release ought to be a static file, I think.
Cheers,
