Is this the overall consensus on this list? If so, I'll revert the change in the next release. So if you don't like this, please comment now.

Thanks,
Rainer

But that is already possible with a single source tarball as we had
with <= 1.19.7.
That's why I questioned the need for the source package split.
Am I missing something?

I'd say, just ship a single tarball as in <= 1.19.7 and let the
distributions decide how they split up the package into (multiple)
binary packages.
