Thanks for this. Can you draft a very rough tag description for this?
Your following paragraph (re. easy and safe) seems to be a fairly good
place to start.

In addition, just checking that you mean "#!/usr/bin/python" vs "#!/
usr/bin/python2.7" (not "!#python" or somesuch).

Finally, linking to some good/bad packages in Debian would help us
prioritise this effectively.

Lintian does not have a concept of a "note" — in the interests of
clarity, you can confirm which severity level you are referring to?
(E:/W:/I:/P: etc.)
