I know that fact and I know that it is recommended. But debian should start to 
use a proper Homepage field for that in the control field and not some 
obscure space handling. If we want to compare the outcome of that, we could 
look at foo2zjs package page[0] and the 9base package page[1].
I seriously kind of fail to see the whole advantage and thus I am not really 
into taking care of that (especially, as long as the control field does not 
exist yet).

Cheers
