Nowadays one can call ucf in one's maintainer scripts in different
ways and at different palaces. If ucf gets merged into dpkg (the
binary), this possibility will most probably be lost, reducing ucf to
a prettier looking conffile interface.
If ucf gets merged into dpkg (the package), the power is left, but why
should one do that?
