You might want to replace the list of distribution targets for Ubuntu
too then, and revert that behaviour when --debian is invoked: #350114

I don't see a problem with --debian at least, -D is of course abit
short, but I have no strong opinion here. In any case, I've just added a
note in the source with the option processing, and we might decide to
add this option (as a no-op in Debian) so that lintian --debian allways
gives the same behaviour, on Ubuntu and on Debian and hopefully any
other derivate.
Other lintian devs opinions? About -D, and about even maybe even adding
it as no-op option?
