I'm a bit worried about maintaining extra code in (makes rebasing harder) and around (needs to be maintained) proposed-migration.

I think most Ubuntu developers ought to be able to find bugs against packages without having them listed on update_excuses.html. FTBFS is just one reason why a package might not migrate so I'm also worried about being vulnerable to mission creep and turning update_excuses into a one-stop "what's wrong here?" shop.

What do you think? Is this worth it? Or can we say that we expect developers to be able to find out what's wrong on their own?
