I haven't gotten any such bug reports, so this is still theoretical, but
I think I'd simply reject anything more complicated than simply adding a
debian/foo.upstart file to the tree, including adding (and maintaining)
hacks or modifying existing SysV init scripts. I certainly won't work on
adding an upstart job to my packages myself.
The hacks we're talking about here are pretty minimal: just three lines in
the init script that we're mentioning. I think it's pretty
straightforward and think that maintainers should just add that support.
