Personally I don't see much value in introducing a new category at this
point. Package moves always introduce a certain degree of complexity
(e.g requiring maintainers in main tree and other repositories to update
dependency specifications), is there really value from introducing this
category vs the existing one? in the general case I'd like to see less
categories rather than more.
