Personly I did prefer to provide tidy support for php on-tree. But if 
the "Debian PHP Maintainers" prefer it off-tree, I'm also fine.

~/debian-builds/php5-tidy/build-area$ ls -la *orig*
-rw-r--r-- 1 waja waja 20444 Nov  6 12:52 php5-tidy_5.1.6.orig.tar.gz

Since the source tarball isn't that much, I think this will be not a big 
problem of having it twice. The advantages of maintaining it off tree is 
maybe, that "Debian PHP Maintainers" dont need to care about on every 
release.

This all are my personly opinions and guesses. I think for a correct answer 
you need to ask the "Debian PHP Maintainers" group.

With kind regards, Jan.
