IMO the main benefit of using multiarch would be that packages could be built
for the new architectures without changes (ideally). libz is currently built
for MinGW-w64 in an “Architecture: all” package, but it’s a separate source
package; various other libraries are built with specific support in their
source packages. While one could imagine adding support to all the appropriate
source packages to build similar “Architecture: all” packages, that would
require convincing all the relevant maintainers, and it would end up tying
the testing migrations to MinGW-w64...

In this scenario the solution wouldn’t be a “none” arch, but a Windows arch,
if we can ever resolve https://bugs.debian.org/606825

The buildd situation isn’t necessarily that much of an obstacle: it seems to
me we could have “Windows” buildds which are really Linux amd64 systems, that
cross-build for Windows.

Stephen
