1. It's not policy, so these bugreports can immediately be closed as
being frivolous
2. Imho it's the wrong place to do this, dpkg should generate those.
This has been plannned for ages but dpkg development is currently
somewhat stalled since we don't want to make too many changes in a
single release and we can't release 1.10 with the current release
system (we don't want it to go into woody).
