I think a Debian developer has a perfectly legitimate right to do
this. I'm certainly *not* saying he ought to in any particular case.
There is no rule *anywhere* in Debian that one has some kind of
obligation to give upstream authors an unlimited soapbox. Indeed, if
an upstream author insisted on one, we would regard that as a
requirement thoroughly incompatible with the DFSG.
