Alright, I'll add a dummy watch file or a README.source, but this seems like strange grounds for rejection of a native package.

Good catch. This should already be fixed in trunk. Are you just pointing this out, or is this considered grounds for rejection from the NEW queue on its own? It seems like this is quoted from the output of some kind of qa script? Is this something that could be added to lintian, especially if it is grounds for rejection?
