I am no fan of hiding upstream projects by maintaining as bundles in 
Debian.

If in fact it makes best sense for node-uglify-to-browserify to be part 
of UglifyJS2 project, it makes more sense for me to have upstream merge 
those projects.

Or did I perhaps misunderstand your suggestion?

Great!

I suspect that such dependency would be only needed only for browser 
use, not for use in a Nodejs environment (which includes build 
environment for UglifyJS2).  If that's true, I suggest to simply add 
hinting as documented here: https://wiki.debian.org/BuildProfileSpec
