For the record, I am primarily concerned about the printing support in Debian,

bug triaging, and Till Kamppeter for upstream and Ubuntu support). I don't
really intend to also start carrying the scanning stack on my shoulders too.
(While I state this, I also know that I might end up taking on this packaging,
just don't wait on me if you're interested!)
Thank you for having a look into this.
This is not a regular scanner driver but it is a driver which gives
support for the scanning parts of practically all modern printer/scanner
multi-function devices. And with the soon to be added IPP Scan support
an important part of the new IPP-based printing/scanning architecture
which is currently under development.
Therefore it is especially interesting to have this package maintained
by the Debian Printing Team.
OdyX, I will not ask you to package arbitrary scanner drivers or SANE
itself.
WDYT?
