Thanks for the rationale.

Right now, it strikes me that the new bugs filed against d-i really
ought to have as full a rationale behind them as possible, rather than
short snippets which only make sense to the filer and perhaps one other
person. That way, innocent bystanders like myself, or perhaps other
people who want to assist, will be able to better choose which bugs to
tackle.
