Is update-rc.d really usable as a trigger like kernel related
"update-initramfs" is used:
- deferrable
- all of the previous configuration obsoleted and removed

I considered using triggers to update the boot sequence, but decided
against it because it not ensure the boot sequence is consistent after
upgrades.  I believe it is better that a inconsistent boot sequence
casues imediate failure instead of trying to clean up the mess after
the init.d scripts have been replaced.

My guess is the other way round: The mess occures because of that. Quiet sure you have been through this all, what you mention here, during the first time of introduction of insserv to Debian: All the LSB-headers had to be written from scratch.
If there were some quick tests available at begin of the trigger?

Why did I saw this debootstrap problem: Debootstrap failed because
of a service couldn't install without a yet installed
Required-Start.

Sound like a bug in some package.  Only one I remember having such bug
recently was util-linux, and that bug was luckily solved after a few
days.  Is there some new bug around now?

Selecting previously deselected package util-linux.
O: dpkg: regarding .../util-linux_2.17.2-1_amd64.deb containing util-linux, pre-dependency problem:
O:  util-linux pre-depends on libblkid1 (>= 2.17.2)
O:   libblkid1 is unpacked, but has never been configured.

Last line sounds to me that a triggered insserv after unpacking all packages during the dbootstrap would have prevented this bug.
