I'd included support for all of the maintainer scripts in my patch; sorry for not mentioning that. (It was easier to include it and later remove it if needed). Looking through the current checks, the patch could probably be safely reduced by simply running the main checks against all of the maintainer scripts, rather than just config and postinst; there are a couple of checks which are specific to individual scripts, but the majority of them are issues whichever script they occur in.
