Bugs is sort of an interesting case since there's no reason to ever
include it in a Debian package, but it's part of the package format and
people making packages for non-Debian distributions should be aware of
it.  reportbug honors it when directing bugs to a different BTS.

I wouldn't mind seeing it in Policy, although of course Debian packages
shouldn't use it since we want to use our BTS for everything and that's
the default.
