libmail-spf-query-perl: spfquery alternatives priorities

Given the overall quality of the libspf2 command-line utilities - lack of
manpages (which I'm working to rectify, though), no support for HELO checks,
override and fallback unimplemented, etc - I wouldn't mind if
spfquery.mail-spf-query-perl were given a higher priority than
spfquery.libspf2, even if the latter should execute faster. I think the same
goes for spfd.
What discussions did you have with the previous libspf2 maintainer? I can see
how there can be confusion if at some point in the futures the relative
priorities were to revert back.
Another thing: will you add a Conflicts: spfquery (<= 1.2.5-4) on the next
upload? It should work if we can assume that all upgraded will feature this
fix. In particular it could help Ubuntu users, since 1.2.5-4ubuntu1 is
non-conflicting. Otherwise << 1.2.5.dfsg-1 is the safe bet. I think there
should be a Conflicts from your direction as well, for the same reason that
there is one from my direction: In case someone keeps an old spfquery package
around but upgrades libmail-spf-query-perl.
