Thank you for your interest, and yes, I would appreciate a comaintainer
:-), and agree that it is better to collaborate than to work on
something alone.  Also, I freely concede that I've taken much too long
to fulfill this ITP.

How do you propose to solve the C++utilities/cpp-utilities issue?  I
worry that it's unsuitable for installation to the global/system
namespace, and I was unable to limit this using something like:

  -DCONFIGURATION_NAME:STRING="martchus" \
  -DCONFIGURATION_PACKAGE_SUFFIX:STRING="martchus" \
  -DCONFIGURATION_TARGET_SUFFIX:STRING="martchus"

I also wonder if this might be a use-case for uscan's multiple tarball
support, and if it would be better if these upstream dependencies
(c++utilities, qtutilities, and qtforkawesome) were bundled.  Ie, maybe
using uscan's multiple tarball support, plus a Debian-specific variation
of: 
  https://github.com/Martchus/syncthingtray/blob/master/README.md#building-this-straight

?

Let me know what you think!
Regards,
Nicholas
