Oh, good, that's less than I thought there would be.  We should probably
add Origin as well.

Autobuild should probably go into Policy.  It's used for non-free packages
to indicate that it's legal for the buildds to build the packages.

Original-Maintainer is odd -- Ubuntu uses that for packages imported and
modified in Ubuntu, but I'm not sure what it's being used for in Debian.
It seems like it might be worth documenting, though.

I wonder what's up with all the Gstreamer and Npp fields.
