Subject: please make packages with epochs bump go in new queue

Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

It started as a joke on #-devel, but it would be nice to have packages with epoch bumped
go in new queue, in the past we had a lot of such wrong bump done by DM, or DD
not understanding correctly what they were doing.

Is it possible to make them go in a new queue so you can double check if the bump
is really needed?

thanks,

Gianfranco
