So, let's first have debian-policy a say about this issue, and after
it's in, lintian could check for it.

I don't know about this header, but if it doesn't hurt, and is easy to
add, I see no reason not have it prefereably added to all binaries if it
has significant advantages (i.o.w., a 'should' for now).

Greg: Ease of adding, and potentional negative benefits would be very
nice to have, and if it's going to be in policy, for lintian a way to
check for it.
