Indeed, however it does cause issues with assignment when security
vulnerabilities are reported, as nobody is CCed to handle it if m-n.
So this list needs to be actively maintained and treecleaning is
difficult with reverse deps involved.
... we might get around this by amending procedures to CC every
maintainer of reverse deps in these cases though (and if no rdep
simply treeclean it).
