+  * Upload to unstable.
+  * Remove recommends on yelp; it doesn't seem to be used anywhere (there is
+    no obvious "Help" button anywhere in the menu or the preferences dialog)
+  * Add gnome-shell-extension-top-icons-plus & nitrogen to suggests, along
+    with a blurb on when/how these are useful. These packages are only needed
+    on certain desktops.
+  * Demote gir1.2-appindicator3-0.1 to recommends, as it is optional per the
+    upstream docs at http://peterlevi.com/variety/how-to-install/
+    ("Other distributions/running from source" section)
