Agreed.

Removal from testing involves filing a bugreport to ftpmaster. I guess
it makes sense if at all uncertain to first file bugreport against the
package and cc this list - of not-to-high severity - suggesting the
intent (removal from stretch or removal from Debian completely) some
time (2 weeks?) before reasigning to ftpmaster.
Discussing only here is not adequate: Being part of this team and
