Yes, I think it *is* desirable;  and in a sense it is already
implemented in ucf with its --three-way option.

On the other hand, the existence of ucf is a big bug in dpkg, anyway,
and finally both functions - ucf's primary purpose, renaming and
moving-to-other-packages of conffiles, and the three-way merge - should
be included in dpkg.
