Dunno which section of your list this should pertain but "Enforce the use of po-debconf for debconf templates" is in my mind.
This probably needs a few s/SHOULD/MUST in the policy so that we can file RC bugs on packages which still use the "old style" debconf l10n system. There are few of these and, IIRC, none of them are really critical packages. Some work was done a few months ago, including NMUs, but the release priorities have stopped it. I also think think about enforcing the use of debconf for packages during config step so that NO package prompts users outside debconf and interrupts installs/upgrades (wvdial comes to my mind). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
