I hate to say this, since actually implementing it is a lot of work in supporting programs like debhelper, but if the debconf-2.0 pseudopackage was introduced prior to a new feature in the debconf interface there needs to be a debconf-2.1 or debconf-3.0 as well. If cdebconf implements that protocol, it can provide that pseudopackage as well.
Agreed. IANADD, but I would depend on debconf-2.1 and when anybody complains point to russ's message.
