I can think of two better ways to do this. An environment variable would
avoid cluttering the parameters of the subcommands with this (and note
that your patch passes it in different parameter positions to different
subcommands), and would make it easily available to any subcommand that
needs it in the future.

Or, it could just parse debian/changelog to see if the package is native
and have a special mode for native packages. While a bit DWIM, that
seems perhaps nicer even.
