Can you elaborate why you think it would not make a lot of sense? Tags
with "I:"-level severity get a lot of visibility and people make
substantive changes if they see them. And, sardonically-speaking, the
Lintian maintainers get reports close to flames for pedantic
level... :)

(Oh, it is not clear to me why you would mention DPL or disavow being a
Lintian maintainer; I addressed my question to you as you filed this
bug, not in any other context or mode? I mention it in case I can
missing something...)
