Re: Roadmap for the 1.15.x series

| * Extend conffile support, merge back ucf:
| 
|   - Store conffiles at install time.
|     <http://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Dpkg/Proposals/ConffileDatabase>
|   - Support registering configuration files.

Could we add support for registering arbitrary files?  Quite a few
packages generate files in their postinst script (e.g. byte-compilation
of elisp, python), and being able to query for who owns it using dpkg -S
would be useful.
