Standards version information in .deb

[Julian Gilbey <J.D.Gilbey@qmw.ac.uk>]

I've been wondering why the Standards-Version field is not copied into
the .deb files.  It appears to me that to find the information, one
has to look at the either a Sources file or download the package
source itself.

Should we consider putting this field into the .deb control fields
during the package building process?
