That's what I planned in the beginning. Unfortunately, the SOAP
interface does not offer this feature.

Either we extend the interface, or we parse the output of
<https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/pkgindex.cgi>. I'd prefer extending the
interface. Until now, I'm too lazy to do the work, but if there's some
pressure ... :-)

The disadvantage is, that extending the interface works only for
debbugs.gnu.org. The Debian guys do not react on such proposals; I've
tried it already in the past. In theory, debbugs.el shall work also for
bugs.debian.org.
