I still wouldn't apply it because of the HTTP/FTP dependency. It's relatively safe for ftp.*.debian.org where we explicitely require both to work at all times, but for other sites it's just calling for trouble. Unless you volunteer to watch over it and notify mirror maintainers of problems if/as they appear? :) (Wouldn't it be great if the underlying issue was fixed and we could simply email mirror maintainers telling them what to do and simply delist their CD mirrors if they don't do that...) -- 2. That which causes joy or happiness.
