Oh, right. I didn't know about that either, but, as David said, I
suspect that is because the idea is still in the planning stage.

No idea. I personally find it commendable from a development point of
view, but I'm not sure the best way to express that to users.

By the way, I've noticed informally via IRC that some people are
confused by the "sugar-SOMETHING-activity-LOWESTBRANCH" naming. From
what I understand, it's LOWESTBRANCH and later. Maybe it might be good
to expressly state "This package is compatible with Sugar X and later."
(yes, I know it's duplicating what's already in the deps, but it's still
useful)
