Hmm, your answer makes me think that I didn't understand the question
correctly.

So, a more general answer: we mostly care about individual packages and
rely on maintainers and britney to care about how they interact.
But if we see something which seems obviously like introducing breakage
we'll probably ask you about it, and if you tell us it's fine, we'll
probably go ahead.
