Maybe it's possible that adding a Build-Depends on dh-sequence-cargo
would let us drop the --buildsystem flag as well -- i believe the B-D on
dh-sequence-cargo acts as an implicit "--with cargo" but i don't
understand how dh's --buildsystem arguments differ from its --with
arguments.

          --dkg

In short. The "--buildsystem" argument is not a "dh" argument, so it is just forwarded to the relevant helpers that understand it. Where as "--with" is something that dh deals with directly.


As for avoiding the --buildsystem flag, then that is not possibly right now (though you can "force" it via the sequence like you do with dh_clean). You are probably interested in #1003056, which is currently unsolved though.

Thanks,
