Hi Andreas, I also considered, but the information of what files are excluded when creating the Debian source package is not relevant to upstream. More simply, I think that if debian/watch would radically change its format to YAML or the Debian control data file syntax, it would be a good place for the Files-Excluded field. And it already contains the information about where the upstream source is distributed, so for most packages, it would only take one patch to Debhelper, one to the PTS and one to packages.debian.org to get the information distribued to our users.
