Intended use of ${maven:CompileDepends}

What's the intended use of the ${maven:CompileDepends} substvar?

It shouldn't be added to Depends nor Built-Using. The dpkg-gencontrol 
warning makes it very tempting to add it to Depends as some package in 
the archive have incorrectly done.

I've resorted to stripping it from the generated substvars file before 
dh_gencontrol to get rid of the warning, but it seems better to do this 
in maven-debian-helper.

Kind Regards,
