this naming schema makes sense, but it is not the one we have agreed on in the debian-ocaml-maint team. So far we have been using for all packages branches master and upstream for sid, and for all other distributions <distro>/master and <distro>/upstream. In my opinion it does not really matter which one we use, but it would be helpful to use the same naming schema for all packages. Cheers -Ralf.
