If you want to use exact numbers of "2", maybe but a single letter

Do we also want to do upgrades *skipping* testing?

We need more aliases in distros.conf ...

I don't think this is helpful, we have too many problems with plain
(sid2)experimental already.

And should stay whitespace if that variable ever changes :-)
