   I am not going to do that with a live package into the live archive from   
   a live repository without understanding what happens and without ever   
   having seen a real-life workflow that isn't some   
   everything-so-fine-and-new-and-shiny-that-this-never-happens-in-reality   
   corner case   
      
   I am especially concerned about this action flipping some switches   
   either in my repository or in the archive that might prevent me from   
   switching back to the classical workflow in the case I don't like the   
   result.   
      
   I might try this with an extra upload to experimental right before   
   switching to a new upstream version. That sounds like a reasonably safe   
   point in package life to try.   
      
   Greetings
