I'm positive I'm not typical, but I personally find Ubuntu development so much more pleasant than Debian development that I'll use the Debian branches on Launchpad for 90% of my on Debian work. It's only at the "last mile" that I'll switch over to e.g. DPMT's or PAPT's svn repo, or file a patch on a BTS issue (generated, of course with `bzr diff`). Heck, I'd even accept using git <gulp!> if Debian had anything as comfortable as UDD for me.
