Then the impact is very limited. Good.

Mmm, I'd say Debian BTS is not the better place for discussing such 
things. Maybe a mailing list (debian-devel?) would have been most 
suitable.

Anyway, removing the package won't have any effect on users who are 
already running Debian 6. An updated version of the involved package 
would be better, IMO.
