I already answered, but I can't find it in the archive - so I quote my mail 
here to be sure:
Hi Phillip, Serge and Mark,
I appreciate community interest in this - but from what I heard so far you'd be 
just as good with an out of tree solution not part of the actual (dovecot) 
packaging right?
The current mail-stack-delivery does modify config files for you, so you could 
drive the same via e.g. a github project just as Mark does with his mail server 
he mentioned.
If it finds a lot of followers it might become a next mail-in-a-box - and if 
not it is fine as well - a community is meant to live and try out things.
If you want you can start with what today's mail-stack-delivery does, but I 
think this is not required (maybe better from scratch).

@Phillip/Serge:
I don't know if you'd prefer a github project or similar that just provides a 
bit of scripting or if you explicitly want to maintain it as a package?
I'd think it is not needed, but I'm fine with the latter as well, but in that 
case I'd still want to take it out of the dovecot package this cycle and you 
can then push it as a universe community package (or as a snap) separate to 
that.
This would simplify the doveot packaging, but not prevent you from maintaining 
the same the way you want - so would that be ok for you as well?
