I've also worked on a way to improve licensecheck2dep5 (without knowing about 
license-reconcile). 

The result [1] is provided with latest version on libconfig-model-dpkg-perl (in experimental). 
scan-copyright is able to consolidate the copyright information in a way quite close to a
reviewable copyright file. See [2] for example

I'll write a blog about this tool once I finish to integrate it with cme.

All the best
