Is there any way we can get packdeps to show the current maintainer (name +
email) so we can easily ctrl+f ourselves in the list?

306 outdated dependencies! I am guessing that most libraries could easily change the boundaries to
=0.11 && <1.1 http://hackage.haskell.org/package/digestive-functors-blaze because the API hasn't changed a lot. As far as I can see only a function was added. Or is everybody using sandboxing tools? Maybe the author of a library should have the right to change the boundary of all reverse dependencies. So that Brian has to adjust all 306 boundaries if he knows that this would work :-) Just the boundaries, not the code.
Devil's advocate question: Should bumping a package major version *even if there are no incompatible changes* be allowed according to the PVP? It seems it causes a lot of inconvenience for people who are following the PVP in their dependency declarations.
@bos: Of course, I understand that this was probably to signal stability, and as such fully support the bump (not that you need my support), I'm just playing devil's advocate regarding the PVP.
