Considering how Ubuntu seems to influence Debian development, this is only slightly surprising.

It's in experimental only, not unstable or testing. That said I'm surprised it hasn't even caused discussion on debian-devel (sans [0]). I would've thought that at least enough Debian developers run experimental to have noticed and raise the issue, but no. I thought about starting a thread myself but couldn't be bothered.
