I just tried to reproduce this, and couldn't; Accept-Type seems to filter database entries correctly, at least when using the file driver. Are you still seeing this? The accept check seems to be done in each driver, which seems a little suboptimal. Perhaps it would be a good idea to perform that check in Debconf::DbDriver::Copy::copy() as well.
