Upstream has a fine mechanism to record licenses of packages and even individual files, and all we need to do is to find someone with write access to The Catalogue (like you or me) to record the information there - and it will find its way into Debian. Lionel is not aware of this mechanism, so it is only natural what he suggests. Which is essentially what we do, just not by firing up an editor on debian/copyright.
