Hi.  IOhannes, I think you won't mind me copying this private mail of

What you say makes sense.  I think this is a fine suggestion.

When uploading to experimental, needing --new is quite common
too, because there often isn't a version in experimental.  I'm not
sure if this needs to be mentioned anywhere.

Out of interest, did you read the description of --new in dgit(1) ?
I ask because I want to know if improving it would have helped.
I just reread it myself and it definitely should be more reassuring.

Thanks,
Ian.
