A couple minor suggestions:

dch has -D to specify the distribution name from the command line. Maybe
if this is placed in these instructions, forgetting to change the dist
name will be less frequent. So:
- dch -v '1.3.0-1~bazaar1~dapper1'
+ dch -D dapper -v '1.3.0-1~bazaar1~dapper1'
- Note that ``dch`` will set the distro name to the one you're currently
- using and this must be corrected in the editor.

If you'd like, you could add a mention here that debuild will invoke gpg
to sign the package. Something like:
> + This will create a ``.changes`` file in the per-distro directory,
+ and should invoke gpg to sign it with your key.
> + Check that file is reasonable: it should be uploading to the intended
