It's harder to parse. I don't want anna to screw up because someone
named their udeb a bit weird. The pattern for kernel module udebs so far
seem to be on the form *-modules-*.*.*-*-udeb which is a bit too unclear
for my taste :/

Having a special control field is simple to use and feels like a more
solid solution.

If too many are against it, though, I guess I'll try to use the package
names instead.
