I'm wondering for the longest time if overriding the section and
priority "by default" is still useful. Maybe it would nowadays be
better to stop overriding section/priority completely (and thus just
using the values from the package control files).
I imagine this would reduce the overrides by 99%, leaving only the few
actual special cases. These would not need "after the fact fixes", as
ISTM they would by definition be "after NEW processing".
I find this a very interesting idea. What are the main challenges with
implementing this?
