In other cases, that entity discloses informatin only to a select few parties, amongst them the non-CERT Debian security team. This is the one case where that scheme does make a difference. Has this ever happened in the past?

This has nothing to do with CERT, that's a red herring. There is *no*
case where this reorganization would make a difference because a
security problem that is public (e.g., reported independently by someone
outside the original disclosure chain) will be immediately published
regardless of whatever the original reporter's plans were.
