I think that's an interesting idea, and wish I could help. It's not a major blocker either way, since certainly maintainers can use the package archive, with a little more effort. I personally would be somewhat more likely to use debbugs.el if it were in trunk, but maybe this will just spur me to learn to use ELPA as a matter of course too. I guess I don't have a strong argument to make, just a mild preference for having it in trunk. Your call.
