Thank you for working on this.  Feel free to go ahead with it.

Okay.

I may have to alter some templates in the future to deal with some
outstanding bugs.  In particular, #725316, #563774 and #505628 are bugs
I suspect may require changes to existing (or adding new) templates.
  Hopefully you can help me with #725316; I suspect it is not the first
time lengthy explanations have been left in a README rather than a
debconf template, so I hope you have an advice for handling this one.  :)

For #563774 and #505628, I have an idea of how to solve it, but I
suspect it might take a while for me to get it completed.  Here I
believe it would be easier just to do a (re-)review later rather than
stalling this one.
