Yes, I agree with you here. We should inform the admin that he might 
need to uninstall a package, but with a warning about the corner 
cases.

On making the team more visible: Maybe it would be nice if our NMU 
strike force (mostly white+nion, I guess) could maintain a list what 
packages they NMU for security reasons. We might want to mention the 
number in the next "bits from testing security team" mail.
