I really like Jonas' enhancement of the original idea. And for sure
the sense is to implement any current or future discussion in one
rush without any need to change debian/control files (after any new
discussion or changes in the infrastructure).
In principle we could also fix old and "very old" style Vcs URIs and
make sure proper URIs will end up at the consumers side.
Kind regards
