I would like it if the proposal also had something allong the lines that if 
the message concerns a specific package, it would add a X-Debian-Package: 
<packagename> header aswell (e.g. DAK, testing migration, PTS mails etc), to 
make the following things uniform:

X-Debian-PR-Package: apt-file
X-Testing-Watch-Package: apt-file
...


cheers,
Thijs
