piuparts-report also does not have visibility over sections ...

I know it would be a rather crude "hack". But right now I'd like to see
something like this to aid me reporting the new bugs arising in unstable
and testing ... and I don't really want to scan through all the probably
80+ sections I have right now.

even if dwke create a full html file that is minimally templated, that
should help ... integration needs to be done later
