The patch isn't the hard part.
Honestly, I think splitting into a separate package is a lot lower risk
than  removing, but if we do that, we presumably need to have
libpam-modules depend on that package for a release cycle.

I'd definitely take a patch against the wip/debian_1.5.3 patch to split
out the module into its own package and to add a dependency from
libpam-modules to that new package. (and then we would want to remove
that dependency in the next release).

Anything more disruptive requires me to think a lot.
I'd rather not focus my energy on that, but I am open to being convinced.
I am not tracking your involvement in projects that want to reduce the
pseudo-essential set.
Is this a nice to have for you, or are you heavily involved in something
with broad consensus where this is important.
