It's such a good idea, it's already been done! :-)
See section 3.1 of the Maemo Packaging Policy:
https://maemo.org/forrest-images/pdf/maemo-policy.pdf
My understanding[1] of this is:
* Any package patched, or not from a existing deb source, needs to
have a maemo version suffix.
* For example, if the base version is 7.0, the package version from
should be 7.0-0maemo1 for the first upload, 7.0-0maemo2 for the
second, etc.
* If the upstream package comes from Debian (with version 3.5-7)
and is unpatched,
the package uploaded from is also 3.5-7.
* If the upstream package comes from Debian (with version 3.5-7)
and is patched,
the package uploaded from mud is 3.5-7maemo1 for the first upload,
3.5-7maemo2 for the second, etc.
Hope that helps,
Andrew
