Well, I don't think it is used all that much, except for the PPA. I don't know how to assess the usage, unless someone speaks up. However, we should probably keep any changes to a minimum in order to make it easier to sync latest version of the packaging from Debian [1]. (Speaking of which, has anyone done that in a while? They have released a couple of updates to build17, so it is bound to have changed a bit).
Regarding your suggestion, that would still append Release/Debug at the end right? Other than that, looks good.

Oh, so that's why it was added. Ops...
