Hi, Xavier,

Thanks for your work on this, this makes debian/watch files easier to
read and handle. And templates mechanism looks really interesting.

However, there is one thing I find missing in version:5, at least in
debian-watch man page. I do not see any reference to "custom scripts".
Sometimes custom scripts are really useful when it is required more
than just remove files from upstream source, The alternative is often
a more complex get-orig-source target in debian/rules.
