  I couldn't have a look at it yet (not on my machine for debian
work), but please, add a manual page - it's a question of 20 minutes
of work, and that definitely would be a valuable addition. From debian
policy 12.1 (your bedtime readings):

     Each program, utility, and function should have an associated manual
     page included in the same package.  It is suggested that all
     configuration files also have a manual page included as well.  Manual
     pages for protocols and other auxiliary things are optional.

     If no manual page is available, this is considered as a bug and should
     be reported to the Debian Bug Tracking System (the maintainer of the
     package is allowed to write this bug report themselves, if they so
     desire).  Do not close the bug report until a proper man page is
     available.

  Cheers,

      Vincent
