This is a bad idea regardless of how it's implemented.

Debian's key strength is that maintainers are usually somewhat connected 
to upstream. If there is a supply chain attack, we hear about it early. 
If there is something special to know during an update, that is how we 
learn about it.

Our goal still isn't to amass the largest pile of software, but to 
curate it.

We just had a thread about mass-removing unused -dev packages, which is 
a clear sign that no one was even looking at these packages.

Automatically importing changes for these is just a vector for supply 
chain attacks.
