This bug has been around ...

I think we should be able to 
 * select upstream tarballs by --tar  or --orig
   This should not include debian.tar.*
   For multiple upstream tar, it should include all of them.
 * select Debian changes    by --diff or --debtar

(Basically --orig and --debtar are alias for 3.0 format)

This is more natural to me.

Also, it would be nice to be able to filter filename into package name
part only.  So we can do things like "dcmd --deb --package dpkg -P".

Oh, it is even nicer to be able to sort output alphabetically etc.

Here is a patch to do this all and its updated manpage.

(I skipped debian.tar.lzma since I never saw it.)
