They aren't necessarily more important changes, but Ubuntu, unlike other
derivatives, publishes deltas relative to Debian so that maintainers can
review them easily.

If similar facilities are available for any other Debian derivative, I would
say that they should be included as well.  However, I'm not aware of any.

I think this idea is complementary to the one being discussed, not mutually
exclusive.
