It's rather surprising nobody thought about this before. Maybe we were all
just trying our best to pretend the current WNPP works fine. :)
The bad things about the idea is that the index page would be ugly, and that
in-site maintenance by the maintainers wouldn't be possible like it is now.
And that someone would need to whip up a perl (or whatever) oneliner to
process current wnpp .dat files and file it as bugs.
And, what about orphaned packages? 452343-adopt@bugs.debian.org would be
cool :)
