openvpn/stop2upgrade: true was the default, and is not longer that way,
because that's the way the Debian packaging system worked before I put
the debconf question. This means that *witouth* the debconf question,
the default behaviour of a 'daemon' upgrade is: 
1) stop daemon
2) upgrade
3) start daemon

When I first introduced the debconf question, I mimicked that behaviour.
That's the only reason. And you won't be asked if you have a low/medium
debcon priority.

NOW, (actually some time ago, just revisiting bugs now) that has *changed*.
Now openvpn/stop2upgrade defaults to false which is what this report
asks for (AFAICT), so let me know if it's OK to close it now.

Regards,

Alberto
