I don't think this is a widely-needed feature and also I think this request is a bit anachronistic nowadays. Most packages which are maintained using a VCS (version control system) are nowadays maintainer using Subversion or another of the VCS supported on alioth or similar hosting services. Using those systems usually the working copy has a copy of debian/changelog; I've never seen in such setting the lack of debian/changelog and hence the need of checking it out in some VCS-specific way. Could you please argument why you need such a feature? Otherwise I'm probably closing this bug in a bit.
