This is a very bad idea. It interferes with reproducibility of binary builds, which is a very important property of Debian packages. Packages must *not* build differently based on opportunistic discovery of build-dependencies on the system - it's a bug for any package to do so, let alone to be specifically encouraging this behavior with debian/control fields!
Alright, this speaks clearly against Build-Recommends. However, would you consider at least Build-Suggests useful enough to support them?
