The only way of doing what you suggest would be to move zotero to the non-free archive area (which is not considered part of Debian per se), but the value added over upstream packaging would be low (and I am personally not interested in doing that). A better solution would be to bundle the Javascript dependencies in the zotero source package (this is not ideal, but at least is it acceptable in Debian if all the source is DFSG-compatible); this still represents a significant amount of work.
