I hear what you're saying, but in the end it is still a workaround,
right?

Just uploading a new tarball with every debian revision seems so
much more straightforward.

I know, some packages might have huge tarballs. On the other hand,
some packages like src:linux seem to get a new tarball each time
anyway (because often there's no -2?).

I imagine each package can do this today, by producing an
<upstream-version>+dfsg<N>-1 version for each upload ...
