Local admins can use dpkg-divert to override files shipped by packages that they want to retain in their modified versions. (And that is orthogonal to the conffiles concept you've explained in the remainder of your mail.) It's been a while since I looked at the internals of console-setup but at least ckbcomp knows about /usr/local/share/X11/xkb, which is listed before /usr/share/X11/xkb, so possibly using the correct location for local overrides in the first place would just work?
