I've never heard of this before, what does that mean for the user?
[ Tests ] I ran the upstream test suite against the packaged version on a Debian testing (Bookworm) x86_64 system.
If you can do this manually, you can probably also do it automatically. If you turn this into an autopkgtest [1] your package could migrate without our intervention (providing that it passes on all architectures where the binary builds and that it tests a substantial part of the as-installed binaries). See https://release.debian.org/testing/freeze_policy.html#hard section "Soft freeze for non-key packages with autopkgtests"
Apart from the migration benefits, adding an autopkgtest will also prevent dependencies from breaking your package unnoticed (in testing) in the future because they will be prevented from migration.
