Yes, there was a brief discussion:

The space savings have become more noticable as we include more test data in
the release tarball. At a glance, about 15-20% of the upstream tarballs in
Debian are xz compressed. Even allowing for overcounting of things like
git snapshots, I guess xz compression is something packagers will have
to deal with.
