Good idea. In fact if we do that, I'd like to require either new releases for the packages using /etc/rebase/dynpath.d or alternatively that they get an additional package that drops just this file (if a full release _now_ would be too much work) and the requisite change to setup.hint to have a dependency added so that this new package gets pulled in.
