python3-debian-blends suggests some kind of addon ("-", not ".") to
"debian" module. 

Will this package provide a public module? If so python-modulename is
your name, if not - why can't you re-use "blends" namespace? (blends-python3?)

ah, so python3-debian.blends is the name. I'd talk with python3-debian
maintainers about including it in the python3-debian, though
