While I happen to agree that debian/ is best kept out of upstream distributions, this is a matter for how the packager wants to organise his/her cooperation with upstream, and none of lintian's business. Furthermore, in my opinion there should not be lintian warnings that cannot be fixed at all in the Debian packaging.
