Debian policy documents quite well what syntax is acceptable. Unfortunately, 
there's no recommendation that help consistency between tools that generate 
(or re-organize) control files (and other).

For instance, wrap-and-sort, dh-make* and cme all use different styles.

I would not mind changing cme output style if such a recommendation were 
adopted

I understand your plight.

All the best
