I've actually been thinking about this. It might be a good idea to 
release a upgade-to-hoary package in warty after hoary is out. That 
package would upgrade the sources.list and tell you what you need to do 
next.

This would eliminate the need for manual editing of the sources.list and 
would be relatively easy to create. Not to mention help a lot of people 
to upgrade.
