Eh but then it makes it hard for me.

"significant space savings" are one of the reasons. Of course that could be the 
topic for a new 500000 emails thread on debian-devel :D

I am sponsoring it.

For the next time, could you find the upstream public key, add it in the 
debian/upstream directory and fix the watch file? Then it would check that the 
file is authentic automatically.

Thanks
