I agree.

libmspack and systemd should definitely be included.  bigeasy is just the 
milter patch?  I think that recently got committed upstream, but I'm not sure.  
We could certainly include it for experimental. 

If someone wants to prepare the package in git, I'm happy to upload it.  No 
need to make a separate experimental branch IMO as any future unstable upload 
will derive directly from this one.
