Doko, I just noticed your comment about dep8 tests.  I agree that some
sort of mechanism to avoid ftbfs would be good.  Though in this respect,
golang isn't so different than C libraries, where an unexpected API
update or library bug can cause ftbfs in reverse-depends.  We use dep8
tests as best practices to avoid that, but don't *require* it as part of
a MIR.

But actually, I expected we could use Built-Using fields in our
proposed-migration tooling to automatically test that reverse-depends
could still build.  Is that not in the works yet?

That seems more packaging-friendly than requiring a bunch of one-line
dep8 tests to trigger a rebuild test.  Especially if we have to add a
delta to get it.
