Do you actually check that the contents of the source *package* (after all operations done by dpkg-source and possibly other tools) actually match what you were looking at before in your source work tree folder?
Yes, although more from a quality control perspective, so I don't do it for minimal changes or simple "declare different target distribution" style backports.
With the 1.0 format, that was a lot easier (zless on the .debian.diff.gz), but with mc that is still doable with 3.0.
I've quite often found problems like accidentally included files, or inconsistencies in the control file because I forgot to apply a change to one package.
