OK - this will push a bit the ustream-metadata.yaml -> UDD -> tasks

IMHO this is safe because there should be always "a first one". If it
is documented at some reasonable place that the first reference is used
on several places in Debian and thus should be the most important / most
up to date one it is fine IMHO.

But if there is a Parser which accepts "some input" patching it to
accept other input sources shouldn't be that hard.
Kind regards
