I think it's worth to keep it, but I'm not aware of any policies...
By the way, I don't think it's necessary to send last rites on renames.

The ChangeLog was pretty minimal. Haven't checked but I think it only
had one entry. I didn't know at that time that last rites was not
required. I did it properly afterwards

Neither is updating package.mask if you use profiles/updates. Anyone
unsure how that works feel free to contact me off list for help.

profiles/updates works fine with package renames.
