This wishlist bug is similar, but not exactly the same, than to one I
already filed against base-config (re-ask debconf priority after
debconf finishes if priority is not high).

The idea of my BR was that users often fall down to the medium
priority during the installation process, because of errors or
whatever elese, which may not be what they want for their final
system.

However, in my opinion, if the installation was successful all along,
the debconf priority is then "high" and remains so. Florian suggests
that this priority should be ask anyway.

This suggestion is interesting also : after all, it may be common that
people want a "low question" installation process but then wish to
install additionnal packages with more control.
