Thanks for the useful data point, but this isn't about allowing things
that aren't already allowed - uploads can already have a mismatch
between the changelog (.changes Changes: field) and .changes
Distribution: field.
I would like lintian + the ftp-masters' lintian glue to forbid certain
things that are currently allowed but do not make sense (and as you
point out, will break cowbuilder if porters use that), such as
Distribution: unstable combined with Changes: "... experimental; ...".
(I would recommend that porters doing manual builds use sbuild if at all
possible, though, to be as close as possible to what a buildd would have
done.)
