Sure. There is more than one way to do things. It just seems
that there are lags between the kbuild packages and image packages, and
of course the kbuild does not support non-debian-source packages,
right?

Seems like a viable approach, though only for things in the
Debian kernel tree. It also boils down to personal taste; using
make-kpkg works for other trees apart from just Debian's.
Unless I am missing the fact that kbuild supports arbitrary
kernel trees?
