I agree with Daniel. Short bullets that point the obvious points to
look are very informative. Thank you for those.
As to comes to removing "# dh_*" comments we agree to disagree on
this. I have no problem with Daniel considering that a "good
practice", but I hope that all understad that developers may have
other views that may be equally valid. After all the person who will
be maintaining the package will surely know how he does it in most
effective way.
