psusi, do you have any more information on this?
I'm interested in getting eatmydata into main this cycle also (bug 1236531).

Title:
  [MIR] eatmydata

Status in “debootstrap” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “libeatmydata” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Please promote eatmydata to main.

  The reason for this request is to support bug #1126314, which requests
  debootstrap to make use of eatmydata to make installs and
  debootstrapping chroots 5 times faster.  This is a very simple
  LD_PRELOAD library that overrides fsync() and related calls to be a
  noop.  As such, it is extremely unlikely to have any security issues.
