Okay, I have made some more extensive changes:

* Distinguish the upstream description versus the Debian package
  description, in both the ‘debian/control’ template and the ITP
  template.

* Add paragraphs to the ITP template suggesting explanations that are
  commonly needed.

These are attached to this message as patches.
