Well, first of all, there is already functionality to rerun the autotools in /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/autotools-files.mk. Furthermore, many packages have some sort of autogen.sh or use autoreconf to perform the bootstrapping, whereas your proposal only covers a specific way to do that bootstrapping. And lastly, why would one want to do that? If you are creating Debian packages you would presumably use (or create) a release tarball and build from that.
