Perhaps this might be because the default rules made by dh_make sets
the priority at optional? I'm definitely guilty, myself, at leaving
the priority at what dh_make had put in the control file, when I used
it to create my packages... perhaps setting it initially to "extra"
would be better? At least for those new packages that use dh_make...
