I don't see why it shouldn't be allowed. It may happen that part a of prog A depends on free software and a minor part (part B) depends on some non-free/not-in-debian stuff. It IMHO would be VERY bad when both pieces have to go into contrib. When you need non-free/not-in-debian for building it's clearly contrib but so... And *if* the source is in main I see no problem, if the source was in contrib and generate a main and a contrib pkg this imho shouldn't be allowed since the source for the main part then isn't available inside main....
