To focus the discussion a bit, here is the list after some manual
processing. Feel free to correct me.

(We have different versions of those libraries. But then again, in most
cases a different library version is a different version of the same
package, and normally end users don't need the library itself)

xvinfo
The following strike me at first as a bit Ubuntu-specific. That is not
to say that that they are not interesting. Please don't flame here but
point out those interesting packages for Debian.
Ubuntu-specific?:
hwtest
hwtest-gtk
landscape-common
kubuntu-artwork-usplash
language-selector
language-selector-common
launchpad-integration
liblaunchpad-integration1
onboard
powermanagement-interface
python-launchpad-bugs
python-launchpad-integration
restricted-manager
restricted-manager-core
ufw
usb-creator
usplash-theme-ubuntu
Others:
apparmor
apparmor-utils
Any work on that?
apport
apturl
Debian has aptlinex instead?
binutils-static
What's the point of that one?
bluez-gstreamer
compiz-wrapper
dkms
emerald
example-content
gdebi-kde
inputattach
jockey-common
jockey-gtk
jockey-kde
kio-umountwrapper
libcanberra-gnome
libcryptui0
libdca0
libebackend1.2-0
libedataserver1.2-11
libemeraldengine0
libfaac0
libgp11-0
nvidia-settings
Maybe this one belongs in contrib?
pxljr
python-apport
python-bittorrent
python-cupshelpers
python-gconf
python-gnomecanvas
python-problem-report
python-virtkey
python-xkit
seahorse-plugins
smartdimmer
system-config-printer-kde
Planned on next KDE major version, per Sune's message.
update-motd
upstart
upstart-compat-sysv
upstart-logd
A large number of those are lib* and python*. Those are not interesting
as-is to users, but may be pre-requirements for packaging other stuff.
