that's not really necessary. The process requires mainly to investigate
the changes that has been done between the version currently in ubuntu
and version 0.5.

AFAIUI, the changes not too grave, but still considerable. I don't
*expect* regression but I wouldn't be surprised if there were.

For the other issues I can only suggest to file bugs in launchpad with
references in what upstream svn revision they have been fixed,
preferably linked to upstream bug reports. That's a convenient way for
documenting your research on the changes in the proposed new package.  I
expect that most of the issues you've noted are already in the package
in jaunty, but without better references, I cannot check that.

if you want something to test, you can fetch the 0.5 package from my
ppa.
