I don't think that I am going to willy-nilly rename utilties.... And
yes, featuremaptest is too generic..
Maybe - if they are intended for public use - upstream might want to
rename them? If they are *not* for public use they just shouldn't be
packaged.

We can do, but unfortunately we're in a freeze, so this only will be wheezy+1

And P.S: This is a wish -> wishlist. Not a normal bug. Already lowered it.
