Andreas tested this with piuparts (see > #699759) quite a bit. Its in unstable since Wed, 08 May 2013.
It has no effect on squeeze->wheezy updates (these are done with squeeze's apt). There should be no effect on wheezy7.0->wheezy7.1 updates (there are no packages disappearing or being added). So far I didn't see any. This will have an impact on wheezy->jessie updates. (I simulated this with backporting the patched wheezy apt to squeeze and doing squeeze->wheezy updates with the patched apt). Therefore I'd like to see this fixed in an early wheezy point release s.t. the patched apt will be used for wheezy->jessie upgrades with high probability.
