The Debian policy used to require this.

There's a default top-level directory for documentation,
/usr/share/doc. The debian/changelog file and any README files below
debian will automatically be installed into /usr/share/doc/<package
name>. The file debian/<package name>.docs can be used to list addtional
files also supposed to be put into this directory. See dh_installdocs(1)
for a detailed description.
