Pros:
  - `debrequest' is developer tool, and probably will be installed only with
     `devscripts', so from user perspective making it part of `devscripts' is
     right thing.
Cons:
  - `debrequest' is written in Python3. Including it into `devscripts', written
     in Perl would not facilate code reuse and will complicate maintainace.
     Depends, whether anyone in devescrips team can/want maintain python3 code.

Added devscripts-devel@ into thread. Your opinions, devscripts maintainers?
