"package-does-not-use-dh") b) The "long description" of the tag with a brief rationale, references, etc. c) The severity (ie.

Unless I'm misunderstanding this request, we have no functionality to "meta warn" when a tag is overridden without an "adequate" or even a non-verbose justification. This would seem overly error-prone. As an aside, every tag in Lintian is overridable; the question of non-overridable tags only concerns uploads and dak where such a subset of tags operates on an opt-in basis for hopefully-obvious reasons.
