It is indeed very late in the cycle to be introducing such a transition. I'm not quite clear where things were up to after the discussion of Julien's suggestions, but we're trying to tie down as final a possible a set of remaining transitions for Squeeze and this does seem like it would cause us a significant number of rebuilds of packages that in some cases will need to be rebuilt for other transitions anyway and aren't always the smoothest to build (xmms2/armel had problems around the time we were trying to get the directfb transition block migrated, for example). Is there a solution which would allow us to perform a gradual rebuild of involved packages without potentially blocking other transitions?
