That would be inconsistent with the current behaviour with tarballs, which also contain UIDs and GIDs and AFAIK are kept untouched by strip-nondeterminism. If those zipfiles are created in the build target of debian/rules, why not just use "fakeroot tar czvf tarball.tar.gz file1 file2" or "fakeroot zip zipfile.zip file1 file2"? Also: What if the zipfile or the tarball comes from the orig.tar.gz and we don't want to alter it in any way? Thanks.
