I know it's not used yet, but it'd be nice to have a --without option, to turn off modules selectively, for future proofing. So, in the makefile, you are using per-target DH_OPTIONS, with all wanted --with options, then in the rules for the target itself, you turn off selected modules(with --without), individually.

Below is a simple contrived example.

==
WITH := perl python-support java
binary-arch: DH_OPTIONS = -a $(patsubst %,--with %,$(WITH))
        dh % --before install
        # other rules
        dh % --without python-support --remaining
