I disagree. deb-pkg only creates a two binary packages. It's not a
"normal" package build process at all and the direct dpkg call is 
perfectly suited for that.

Also: 
- the lack of orig.tgz would probably break debhelper/dpkg-buildpackage
  anyway
- using debhelper would probably imply running a clean target and that's
  one of the reasons why I very much prefer deb-pkg over make-kpkg:
  build times with deb-pkg are significantly lower

I've had that thought as well, but please as a _separate_ build target (or 
somehow optional). Same maybe for a -doc package.
