I have none here so I'd still appreciate one...

Huh? It's still just textual substitution.

Then I am /much/ less interested in the patch as it doesn't really help with
the workflow for the maintainer. We're going from a manual edit of two

A tool to more easily set the Build-Depends would be of use.
