well, as you say for yourself "non-free" is not Debian, which basically means that we provide infrastructure and such, but if in doubt the user is left alone with his problems. It also means that *we* need to distinguish between _official_ and _inofficial_ medias, while requiring users to get inofficial medias to install in the first place, which is quiet insane. I do think its good to handle those firmware data different from how we handle the non-free section. Possibly we also need to handle it different then main, because we have a source code requirement for main. Thats why I like his proposal.
