I prepared a patch the preserves the paths for

I see in the upstream report that they are skeptical of the patch. I don't necessarily think the patch is bad, but I do tend to follow upstream's guidance in this regard.

I recommend that you work with upstream to resolve their concerns; Debian will get the results automatically (as will everyone else) once the change is accepted there.

While doing the patch I changed the following:
  * added include for /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/simple-patchsys.mk in
  * rules
  * added cdbs to Build-Depends in control
  * added debian/patches directory
  * added patch launch-with-full-path.patch

I don't necessarily think cdbs is appropriate for all packages, particularly simple ones such as htmldoc, so I think I will keep the package as it is now.

Thanks for your concern and work; I wish you well in getting the patch accepted upstream.
