Understood for the ITP-case. (I assumed "dpkg-source --commit" would have 
added those lines for a reason, so I kept them). As there is no specific bug 
to close, I removed all the lines mentioned above EXCEPT the "Author" one, as 
this should be mandated by "dep3", if understood correctly.

What would be the correct way of handling for non-ITP bugs? Should they be 
only mentioned in the changelog, the patches or both? Some example what I 
could think about: "Backport of some-logic-flaw from upstream". Does Debian 
system also use the bug reference entries from patches to auto-close bugs? I 
assumed, that only changelog-bug references would do that?

Seems so. As the upstream native package would also greatly benefit from these 
changes, I will backport most of the stuff done here for the next version, 
then we could drop most or perhaps even all of the patches. Would it make 
sense to keep the sponsor-workflow also for those uploads (pro: learn from 
sponsor, con: consumes sponsor's time) or becoming a maintainer (pro: shorter 
upload workflow, con: no second opinion on own work)?

Thanks for your patience!
