If it is just a matter of adding Multi-Arch: foreign, i can do it right
now, but
i would have no clue what i would be doing... Any advice is welcome.

Ahh, right.  Thanks for pointing out the (now) obvious) :-)

node-uglify is arch:all, therefore there’s nothing to be done
for this package.

I even edited /var/lib/dpkg/status with sudo, to add the M-A:foreign
line to nodejs (and bump the version so apt doesn't remove it), and
then could successfully install node-uglify on x32.

Uhm, wouldn't it make more sense to instead file bugreports against 
stuff like node-iglify, to get _more_ of Debian multiarch'ified?
