(NOTE: The repo takes up 300+ MB on my local disk)
I chatted on #debian IRC about this a little. It seemed like one person thought doing all the archs would take up too much space. So far doing it daily for over a year for two archs has been manageable. I think you simply have one repo per arch, instead of having multiple archs in one repo like I have here.
I will try to get the code up... if you think you will use it you can ping me on github. I think this should be in Debian itself, and actually supported by debootstrap, but so far I am just wrapping it rather than patching it. (I started off trying to patch it.)

I didn't have anything related to this on my Github account, but I just uploaded the data files in case that is useful to anyone.
