Hi Sven, Thanks for forwarding the issue to dpatch. Indeed, from my PoV we would ideally fix this issue in dpatch. However, we need to handle backports as well and that puts quilt back the table as well. I am not quite sure that I want to backport quilt and dpatch to provide further debhelper backports.
