It does provide one bit of meta information -- it tells me
that this is a package for which an upstream url does not exist, as
opposed to a package which does not yet follow the new convention.
What you are suggesting would make it impossible to
differentiate between a package foir which no url exsts, and a
package whose maintainer has just not gotten around to fixing the
description.
