FWIW, I think especially when there are a few packages affected by this,
it is quite likely to forget to look at the wiki page at each 'apt-get
source' command. It should therefore be made clear at download time what
restrictions are on a package.
Isn't that what we have archive section for? apt-source pretty clearly
tells me if I'm downloading something from multiverse or restricted.
