I wanted to open that up because it will become more important later.
Rigth now it is unused. In future it may be part of a visual installer
but most importantly / making debian packages requires a contact to be
entered. To be precise the DEB generator uses
CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTACT but if none is defined CPACK_CONTACT gets
used instead.

Setting a default is fine and perfect for installers, while when
someone wants to build debian packages he would want to provide more
precise information. The latter is the reason to why I made it
publicly available and cached.
