I've written a patch implementing this, though:
* I wonder if it wouldn't be a good idea to extend the "affects" to the
other release.debian.org tags that relate to packages (everything but
"britney" and "other"). (This could be done by moving the second
added line up a couple of lines.)
* I didn't quite dare to actually send a test message to the BTS (to
make sure I've got exactly the right Control: syntax), so it could
use some testing from someone who will so dare (or has an actual
unblock to request).
