Additionally you might make sure it isn't entirely numeric; I don't
know if this is codified anywhere official, but causes problems
minimally for the BTS rewrites; it is ambiguous whether
http://bugs.debian.org/1234567890
should go to bugrept.cgi or pkgrept.cgi.
Even if this isn't official it can be reasonably discouraged..
