I appreciate your patch and commend you on its completeness, but
unless you come with a surprisingly convinced argument, I won't apply
it.

Rationale: People sophisticated enough to move away from the standard
Maildir name should be able to fire up an editor and edit a
dpkg-conffile.

Not everything must be configurable through debconf, dpkg-conffiles
exist for a reason.

Greetings
Marc
