libc-client2007 transition

Hi all,
I'd like confirmation that my plan for this situation makes sense.
At the end of last year there was a small transition done to move
from libc-client2007b to libc-client2007d.
However, Debian then reverted this change (with an epoch), as they
didn't want the SONAME bump in lenny.
That package was synced, so we now have the reverse transition ready
to move, with libc-client2007d on the NBS list.
However, as we don't have the same SONAME concerns at this point, I'm
not sure whether we should do this reverse transition.
My proposal then is to prepare an upload of uw-imap, that has a
"really" version number, to get back the libc-client2007d packages.
We can then complete the transition with uploads to the half-dozen
packages depending on the old SONAME. Once Debian has started the
transition again we can sync once more.
Does that make sense?
Thanks,
James
