I fail to see the point with other maintainers. Being DDs they would
face the same needs you're facing now.
I do see the (tiny) point about other distros, though. IMO it is not
worth the effort to have a non-native debian package just for that.
Indeed, I consider 'tiny' this point because other distros can just
ignore the debian specific part and use everything else.
Cheers.
