I suspect the answer is some combination of "use noawait where possible" and "do such-and-such in your postinst scripts, which after a careful analysis of different upgrade paths I can guarantee will cause the intended effect of the trigger to happen at some point in the upgrade". Unfortunately I have not done that careful analysis, so I can't give the appropriate advice, but hopefully someone else will be able to (using triggers.txt for reference and letting us know if they run into any questions).
