Thanks for the tip to you and Bruce.
Actually I do not think that this is a so much uncommon job.
Not every new version of a package is flawless.
So there are cases where you wish to downgrade, file a bug report and wait
for the next debian version of the package.

I might be a good idea to have this possibility from within dselect.
dselect's version management is really advanced...
