I expect the ftpteam will want to put things in NEW when they move
between main/contrib/non-free so a simple list of packages wouldn't be
enough?

Maybe. I'm not sure. main -> {contrib, non-free} could just work. Elevating out of non-free would be problematic, of course. This could also be implemented as a diff against the current state on import, it wouldn't necessarily need to be in a list. But I don't really care. I mostly care about sections without components and priorities. ;-)

Kind regards
