I will document it in the source package as debian/README.source -
that's the place you should always look for unusual Debian packaging
notices.

Reason I haven't written anything is simply that I do not consider it
unusual, from a Debian perspective.  I don't mind adding such note.

Sounds good.

For the record (but let's postpone further discussion), I am not
strongly merried to quilt, just have strong muscle memory with that
tool, and have zero muscle memory with other more modern wrappers like
`gbp pq`, including how to annotate meaningful DEP-3 metadata. Seems to
me that gbp is difficult to educate if you disagree with its default
messages-are-sentences-beginning-with-capital where I prefer that
messages-begin-with-lowercase.
