+  * requestsync:
+    * If interaction is required (for an explanation to drop the Ubuntu
+      changes), edit the report in the sensible-editor.
+      When interaction is not required, ask the user if she wants to edit.
+      (LP: #190351)
+    * Exit, if versions in Ubuntu and Debian are the same already.
