Possibly so.

I've done this for a few packages where I have to have Ubuntu deltas.  pex was
a good example, although the delta has been resolved, so now the Debian and
Ubuntu versions are identical.

It does seem like DEP-14 has thought of these complications.  My concern is
that these should be rare so it seems nicer to optimize for the common
(simple) case and allow for the more complicated branch names when needed.
