Since this issue won't break the system, but 'only' the wireless network

I still think that this is kind of debconf abuse, but I don't find
enough evidence to ground this. IMO, the user gets notified by
apt-listchanges, because we stated this very clear in Debian.NEWS. So
interested administrators would perhaps get this note twice, which seems
to annoying to me. Moreover, I think Debian.NEWS is the correct place.
Perhaps a more experienced maintainer can help here?
Take a look at Md's maintainer scripts for udev, he uses "echo" for some
important informational messages :-)
I agree with you Reinhard, that debconf would be overkill here (again I
cannot substantiate that, but neither can I make an argument TO use it
as the preferred warning mechanism). Leaving /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
intact if its been modified would go a long way to making the transition
a bit smoother.
Thanks,Kel.
