No.  There's a proposed patch that I'm not horribly happy with because I'm
worried that it's too aggressive, and I haven't had a chance to think more
about it and revisit it.

I'm planning on preparing a patch for dpkg to add the Homepage field
to the control fields of the package.  Will most probably work on this
during the summer [1].  Maybe then we can stop the stupid "one space"
vs "two spaces" fight.
