Well, I wish the time spent writing this had been used to begin adding
real support to dpkg for excluding operating on files at all based on a
regex. That has no many more general uses: Not installing docs, man
pages, info pages, or locales; shared /usr/ or /usr/share/ that is not
modified by the client machines, and so on.
