Ah, now I see what your "For what benefit?" is referring to. You
placed it under a statement of "bogofilter can now use sqlite", so I
thought you were asking me the benefit of that (which I thought was a
strange thing to ask).

Instead, I think you're asking me "for what benefit is a
sqlite-enabled build of bogofilter in Debian?"

In answer to that question, my answer is much the same: bogofilter is
capable of providing that alternative, and I'd like to be able to take
advantage of it in a Debian binary package.

If other backend storage is possible, there's even more reason to have
alternative builds of Debian: to use the capabilities provided by the
upstream software.
