I wasn't entirely sure about the current process, so I looked around a bit and found [0]. This proposal [1] already has three seconds (Russ, Jakub and Julien), so that should already be sufficient. Obviously, additional seconds don't hurt and I consider to do so myself. I don't think we necessarily need the distinction between directories in /usr/lib/ holding architecture-indep only data or a mixture, and with the current proposal #740345 would still be a valid bug, though with non-RC severity (as it would violate a should directive). But I guess it would then be one of those cases where we simply tag the bug as wontfix. That directory is sort-of API and we shouldn't change it downstream, imho.
