It doesn't _require_ a new maintainer -- the person who owned in Core
could quite happily continue to maintain it at least during the
transition. A change of maintainer is something we can handle anyway, if
they don't want to continue.
And we could bypass the formal review for the initial binary package too
-- just make sure it passes review before the first _update_ is actually
put through the Extras build system.
We need to make it easier for things to pass between Core and Extras, in
either direction.
