Well, there are a few similar issues filed: * #772961: Please display no-dsa/end-of-life tags in "open issues" table in "source package view" * #776738: end-of-life issues clutter the list of open issues * #780892: please show unsupported packages as unsupported instead of unimportant #776738 seems to be the most relevant to me, so I added it in CC. The security team (in CC) also suggested way this could be implemented privately, but i will let them paste that here. A. -- O gentilshommes, la vie est courte.
