you can always fork the current packaging and upload/NMU it.
Send patches to the BTS or open an issue in github, pointing to your fork.

Its up to the maintainer then to figure out on how to integrate your
patches and up to them to fight their CLA/lawyers to accept your
changes. Or they'll have to remove your changes and do the same work
again... whatever works.
