I've also been meaning to bring this up, but from another angle.
Previously, Ian, you've said that packages which depend on a non-free
package must be put in non-free, hence the current location.

The reasoning behind this is that a CD would typically have no non-free
packages.  Selecting mailcrypt would apparently confuse dselect as it
would not be able to find pgp.

I just wanted to confirm that dselect would not have problems with
moving mailcrypt and other such packages into contrib.
