I agree with that. Nevertheless, the base directory should be free of Debian files or references to them (especially ./Makefile.am and ./configure.in) as that breaks make distcheck for packagers which use different debian directories as Albin mentioned before. If the base directory is kept clean, creating ./debian/changelog from ./debian/changelog.in is as simple as adding it to configure.in manually, if needed.
