Hmm. According to the latest policy the Task: method should be used
which I think is not the best thing.......

From the changelog of Debian policy package:

debian-policy (3.5.7.0) unstable; urgency=low

[...]
 * we no longer have task packages, instead, we define tasks using a
    special field in the control file (and these should be added only
    after discussion on the mailing lists)                    closes: Bug#97755
