The patch looks reasonable to me.  How about doing an NMU?

Yaroslav Halchenko:
THANK YOU for digging this one up.  So, it is "just" a
time/technical issue if I got it right.  So, the situation will remain
"as is" for foreseable future I guess.

and not a list of addresses.  Am I missing smth?

That's all nice, but the page says "to the package maintainer". In this
case, the "package maintainer" is the email address of a team maintaining a
very big number of packages. Very often Uploaders maintaining only a single
package in such a team are not subscriber to the team mailing list, to avoid
drowning in other noise.

I see, thanks for the explanation. Still, I wonder now if we
should seek/consider adding Uploaders to the "maintainers" here, since a
typical "user" of current setup would still be hitting "Reply" on the
BTS website, and it would be counter productive to request everyone to
familiarize with each  package current maintenance/uploading
"structure".

See bug 397761.

Best,
Chris
