I've tested this patch and I agree this looks much better than the current 
checkbox, so lets apply this.

The only comment I have is that I think it is better to have the initial 
focus on the _active_ radio button.
I found out that it then is still very easy to change to the other option 
by using the up or down arrows. I also think that it is slightly safer as 
accidentally hitting space won't change anything. I think it is good if 
changing the default requires a bit more deliberate action.

I'll build and upload cdebconf after you've committed this and the patch 
for #397877.

Cheers,
FJP
