I agree with you that 'buntu packages should try to follow upstream
Debian, however I am puzzled how Debian can recommend packages that it
does not distribute:

http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=autopano&searchon=names&section=all

This is not the reason for dropping the suggestion.  As you correctly
remarked, this is not a dependency.  A suggested package is a package
that the maintainer of the installed package recommends.  Can you
recommend autopano*?

I would suggest recommending are LuminanceHDR and Gimp as they are
useful in processing Hugin's output.
