Sorry, what? No, they're not upstream defaults; I've literally copied and pasted the upstream's user guide that explicitly says otherwise, in the other message. Besides, we're not beholden to whatever upstream thinks; this package is causing unrelated data loss to the rest of the system in this case; it must not do that. http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#severities critical [...] makes unrelated software on the system (or the whole system) break, or causes serious data loss [...] grave [...] causes data loss [...] I've even been generous the last time around, this is actually a critical bug. -- 2.
