More accurately, someone has to add said (not very) non-trivial code
to dpkg.
This isn't something that regularly happens. I can't actually find
anything that looks like an actual feature added to the dpkg program
itself (the one actually in potato, not the one in Klee's homedir,
or experimental, or wherever) since '96. Changes to dpkg-source and
such, sure, but not dpkg itself.
Cheers,

I don't speak for anyone save myself. PGP encrypted mail preferred.
