Please use the mailing list to discuss dpkg matters. At least we can get some more feedback. I honestly don't see a valid reason to remove the overload in your argumentation. If it starts to cause some specific problems, we can either fix the code or add a supplementary overload in the problematic object (the "bool" one in your case).
