The nodejs packages were the bulk of orig addon tarball users I noticed when scanning the archive, AFAIR. But I'd like to understand what concrete benefit would we get by adding this backwards incompatible feature, which could already be used right now (as I mentioned in my other emails) by convention (just name the addon tarballs as say "<source>.orig-vendor-node-<module-name>" and then changing dh-nodejs to use that instead of the current patterns or adapting the files listing the addons? Thanks, Guillem
