Actually, the policy explicitly allows this:

| The maintainer scripts are guaranteed to run with a controlling terminal
| and can interact with the user. If they need to prompt for passwords, do

[Debian Policy 3.6.2.1, section 6.3]


This should probably changed a bit to reference 3.10.1, which says that
all means to prompt the user besides debconf are deprecated.
