nothing against upgradability to 1.0, but introducing epochs right from
the start just to support unofficial woody-backports seems like a bad
idea to me.

Can't you introduce the epoch just prior to release, if the package is
still at 1.0? I don't think we absolutely *must* support people using
backports for woody wanting to upgrade to unstable.

Your call of course.
