This broke my dovecot install with a delay of several days (maybe
linked to log rotation interval, when dovecot is instructed to read
configuration files again?)

In my opinion, this warrants a higher severity for the bug.

Indeed, the "rm -f" of dovecot.conf is in dovecot-common's purge
action in the postrm file. It looks like every purge attempt will
delete the configuration file again (!)
