I like this proposal, and will soon second it, but there are a few points i will like to clarify : > C.

"to the extent that Debian is capable of doing so." What is the alternative to that ? not ship it ? Or ship it in main until "Debian is capable of doing so" ? > D. Requests that vendors of hardware, even those whose firmware is I think "Request" is a bit strong here, i would much have prefered a less arrogant and will actually have more chance to be not dismissed out of hand by the actual hardware vendors.
