And you deserve credit for this commitment, though I personnaly consider this to be a waste of (otherwise useful) time. I still consider that dselect should now be entirely deprecated and removed from the archive. Seeing that maintaining it will (by definition) will now take some significant valuable developer time (something we are very short of) for the sole benefit of those people who consider it to be their personal taste's choice....is, imho, not the best thing to do. Unfortunately, it is now probably too late to drop dselect in dpkg, but that should really be considered for wheezy+1 (and, here, I mean "drop it", not "allow it to be a separate package"-->such work is the duty of those people who want to keep it in the archive).
