I do think a paragraph like that still makes the changes better than 'status 
quo', but I do also think that it would be better to 1) not ship this 
paragraph and 2) apologize to Markus and the games team for having wasted 
their time with menu files.  This ensures that we in a year don't have to 3) 
apologize to the rest of the Debian community for having wasted their time 
with menu files.

But still. Better than status quo.
