I just looked at the dh_strip program (this seems to be the one in question),
and it only does part of what the RPM "debugedit" program does.

The Fedora debuginfo packages include the sources referenced by the debug
information that aren't usually installed (it puts them in
/usr/src/debug/$SORUCEPACKAGENAME-$VERSION), and also edits the paths in the
debug info so that they can find this source.

Lastly, since it is done automatically it is available for every relevant
package rather than just the ones that have turned on the feature.
