On the libvigraimpex thing, I think you should show two examples, one where the source and binary package names are the same, and one where they're different, e.g.

$ apt-cache showsrc tomboy | grep ^Package:
Package: tomboy
$ apt-cache showsrc python-vigra | grep ^Package:
Package: libvigraimpex

BTW, there's also now a packaging-dev package which gets you most (but I think not all, e.g. cdbs) packages you'll need to do basic package management. We should recommend people install that if we don't already.

s/every day CD images/every day, CD images/

Are you sure this recommendation will always work:

$ bzr log ubuntu:sysvinit | grep ^tags | head -n 1

IOW no possibility of subsequent tags confusing things, even in the face of user error?

Everything else looks good to me. I think you can merge once those changes are made.
