Yes, I do intend to add such a feature. The current solution of using uversionmangle is conflating to ideas together that really shouldn't be. I should really close the related Lintian bug since that's not the approach I'd like to have advertised going forward. I'd like to just add another directive to the options field specifying what the dfsg suffix should be.
