[cc'd to Nicolás and Wichert since they are probably the most interested parties & I dunno if they monitor -policy.]
What is the status of this proposal? Are we still undecided on its merits or do we just lack patches to the policy and packaging manuals to codify it? If we don't have consensus on this approach, maybe Nicolás' implementation of the concept within the package itself (rather than in the package control file) is appropriate; see /usr/doc/bug/README.developers for a description. FWIW both methods are implemented by reportbug, so neither is that hard to do... I guess it's a tradeoff between Packages bloat and littering small files in a directory. Unless anyone else has a proposal...
