IMO not atm. But you can migrate your package of course.

1) I don't miss any feature with dpatch and I'm quite happy with it.

2) The last time the dpatch-vs-quilt issue was discussed on debian-devel
anybody wasn't able to tell, how to easily use the debian/-only approach
together with quilt. Did things change? I'm neither willing to
complicate my packaging work nor to put all the sources into SVN.
