Would it be feasible for dak to have a list of binary package name

packages from the given source package that match the regex, assigning
the given section/priority, without manual action? That would let the
ftp team pre-approve src:systemd to ship /^libsystemd-shared-[0-9]+$/
in libs/optional, for example.

It seems like this would also be good for src:linux, where ABI breaks
are often tied to security fixes that should enter the archive ASAP.

regexes mapped to a source package and a section/priority, and auto-accept

If something fully automated like this would be implemented, I would have much less concerns with this option.

Thanks, Simon!

Fwiw, I like your proposal and would like to see it implemented regardless of the issue at hand as I think it could be generally useful.
