Is this common practise among sponsors?

I was under the impression that the maintainer should create the package
exactly as it should be uploaded into Debian, and the sponsor can expect
to make no modifications before re-building. So I always put the
intended target suite in the changelog entry.

If the above convention (the sponsor will change ‘UNRELEASED’ to the
appropriate suite name before re-building) is common, is it documented
anywhere?
