Unless I am mistaken, hints are checked by britney for correctness, so if the Conflict handling is insufficient, the hint becomes a no-op. But in the cases where no problem arises, the hint might already be a useful time-saver for the release team. Is “hint” or “easy” appropriate for this? And can one specify also individual binary packages (e.g. after a binNMU) for transition? http://release.debian.org/britney/hints/README mention only source-package/version tuples.
