Took me at least two times reading to understand the comments, but
sounds sane to me now.

Interesting. I've dropped that dependency in experimental but seem to
have forgotten to do that in unstable. Thanks for the unintentional
hint. :-)

But anyway, dh-dist-zilla seems to work good enough to bring its first
reverse build-dependency to unstable. That will end the nuisance of
having to maintain 4 to 5 git branches (master, upstream, pristine-tar
and debian; plus currently the one for dh-dist-zilla). Afterwards,
we'll likely only have 2 of them: master and pristine-tar. :-)
