Severity: wishlist
It would be useful to add a special suffix to the executable
files in /usr/lib/base-config/menu which will be considered
as menu entries.
For example we could have:
mta.cfg mta.mnu mta.tst
and then change the code in prep-menu accordingly:
find menu \( -type f -or -type l \) -perm -700 -printf '%f\n' | grep .cfg
This way it would be easier for other packages to customise base-config. For
example a package could provide a custom mta.cfg diverting the original file
to mta.cfg.distrib, and prep-menu will not include the .distrib file in the
menu.

Yes true, and that's fine for me.
I'm closing the bug.
