lintian should thus stop raising a `recommended-field` warning when a
source package does not include a Priority: field.
The Debian policy manual states that this field is mandatory to have
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-archive.html#priorities
If you change the policy accordingly, I'd be happy to raise a patch
to drop this check.
Sure. The request to update Policy is tracked at
