Creative idea, but I was rather thinking of the opposite, keeping
pepperflashplugin-nonfree compatible with multiple chromium versions.  So still
updating /etc/chromium/default as long as an old chromium version is being
used.

It can be done, but it's more work than I can do in short time.  Also, it would
only be useful if the new chromium version using /etc/chromium.d would still
also have /etc/chromium/default, so possibly not useful.  I await a new
chromium version using /etc/chromium.d in unstable and testing for this aspect.

Does this make sense to you ? Or am I overlooking something ?
