I just filed one on phpmyadmin (of severity "normal"), and I would agree that, generally speaking, this kind of thing doesn't quite fit the criteria (technically). But we have a nice new channel to provide information to users in a convenient, pleasant manner. It would be a real shame to have it degenerate into something useless (or worse than useless). Aside from phpmyadmin, I've seen one other NEWS.Debian entry (not released, and the maintainer is waiting for a patch from me) that was WAAAAY too long. That's 2 out of 5 NEWS.Debian entries I've seen thus far :) And I wrote two of them myself ;) So I'll continue filing them as "normal" until it's apparent that they're minor bugs in the odd package as opposed to a general trend.
