Is it just me, or would this fix the problem simply:
1) If a postinst generates a configuration file with debconf, it
must place the md5sum of the generated configuration file in
/var
2) A package should try and parse the current configuration file
back into debconf before prompting.
3) After prompting, the package must confirm that the current
md5sum matches the one stored in /var. If it does and the
package succeeded at (2) it may replace the configuration
file. Otherwise, use ucf.
