(Get the code!)
I'm unsure about what is exactly the change being requested here ?
Surely, ubuntu distribution only knows about uploads made to it, it doesn't introspect the uploaded changelogs looking for versions done elsewhere (mainly because it doesn't necessarily know what they could be).
The pages you mentioned talk about version 'in Ubuntu' and the UI should be clear about it.
On debian syncs (manual or automatic) I think the 'packaged' history should be clearly mentioned in the ubuntu version changelog.
As a speculation point, now that Launchpad knows debian sources [1], we could certainly perform more precise syncs and even point to 'packaged' history in a more reliable way.
Maybe we will have an opportunity to discuss this during UDS.
