Is that an invitation to move GRASS 7 from Debian experimental to
unstable so that it breaks the QGIS builds?

That would make the GRASS community happy, they have been complaining
that the lack of support for GRASS 7 in QGIS (2.8 LTR specifically) is
holding back their software.

I would like to get rid of GRASS 6 in Debian and switch to GRASS 7,
but haven't done that yet because qgis-plugin-grass users complained
that the lack of GRASS support in QGIS was unacceptable.

Now that GRASS 7 support in QGIS >= 2.10 is available, I think we
should make the switch in Debian and suggest users of the qgis plugin
to use the upstream QGIS packages for its GRASS 7 support.

Kind Regards,

Bas
