Wouldn't it be better to store defaults/specific config in debian/gbp.conf of project/package? Therefore, all package contributors would use the same approach. Also, recommended gbp.conf could be added to https://wiki.debian.org/Java/Packaging as a new section, for example as "recommended practices", or "recommended gbp.conf", or "common guidelines", or "gbp guidelines",...
