My proposal for the interim phase (however long that might be) is to provide symlinks in gir1.2-* packages that provide correct functionalities in Debian and downstream distros (such as described above), as well. /usr/lib/girepository-1.0/Caja-2.0.typelib -> /usr/lib/<triplet>/girepository-1.0/Caja-2.0.typelib
I agree with this solution. Theoretically we could also create this symlink only on Ubuntu, in debian/rules.
