Why not move the /etc/debian_version file into a separate package, and for example include the release documentation in that package. The package could be called debian-version, and it would make it easier to keep a separate version in testing and unstable. The version number and the release notes are in my experience the last two parts one want to update before a release, and it might make sense to update those directly into testing, instead of going through sid.
