I think the point for hal vs. hal-info was that hal-info releases
could be independent of hal releases. pm-utils vs.
pm-utils-video-quirks is a much narrower scope issue. You could
probably get away with spinning a new point release of pm-utils after
a few quirks had rolled in with minimal code changes.
