Well, it will be maintained by a core developer. :) It would also be in the Emacs manual, and blessed as an official method for declaring complex package configuration. Further, I wouldn't want it changing on users as ELPA updates. Once a user downloads Emacs X.Y and reads the manual on how to write such configurations, the information should remain true until Emacs X.Z. John
