C10shell doesn't get invoked when a hook dies. Also, there are many cases where
you don't want a shell to be spawned just because of a few lintian errors.
Generally, at least for me, inspecting the resultant debs can already show
what's wrong. But aside from that, anything that doesn't result in my built debs
being purged due to lintian errors would satisfy me already. Perhaps pbuilder
should instead be tweaked to not purge debs if a hook dies?
