I don't think so. I'm interested importing the upstream tarball, warts and all. Then I can create a branch of 'upstream' called 'dfsg-upstream', with the warts corrected. So I don't think there should be any mechanism to strip out directory levels, any cleanup should be done in the revision control system.
