I use my maintainer full report all the time.
I think a lot of the explosion has been the inclusion of the purely
informational tags in the maintainer reports, which I think are fairly
useless and add a ton of space because even entirely Lintian-clean
packages have several of them. Maybe just suppress those from the
maintainer report and see what things look like then?
