Note that this bug, which was correctly rejected, is requesting support in _dpkg_ itself, rather than in the dpkg-dev tools. The dpkg-dev tools _should_ be changed to make them handle Original-Maintainer the same way they currently do XSBC-Original-Maintainer; this is (or should be) part of the maintainer field spec https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/debian-maintainer-field.
