Debian doesn't use RPM as part of the package management infrastructure, and any limitations of RPM is therefore irrelevant to how Debian should handle javadoc, and (in general) Debian policy. So, again: why should Debian policy care about RPM systems?
Only in the context of standardization for more general Linux and/or GNU systems. I.e. if/when Linux Standard Base or some similar project should tackle Java, can you make a good case that they should base it on the Debian policy?
