Hmmm... reading at the policy (http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-files.html#s10.9.1) it seems to me that it's a tool meant for system admins and not packagers... or do I get it wrong ? There's no such policy it seems, there... If files are shipped as root:root and not yet belonging to the user, during the install time-frame you describe, I'm not sure I can see a risk there. May I ask you to clarify your point ?
