Recommendation on the maintainers list was to *not* upload debug
packages, but some people are, and no-one has said why or how to use
them ...

IMHO, until upload scripts are fixed to not upload debug packages,
and/or the debug packages are used by end-users (not packagers), they
should be turned off by default. If the packager is the only one who
would use it, he can turn them on in his .rpmmacros.
