I thought about it after I have uploaded the fixed version. On the other hand I do not think permissions are reset when unpacking the new files. I think this is only set at first unpack. I'm not sure though. I'm reopening and making it a wishlist bug to skip this part in postinst (for permissions, not for user owner) as it could be handled in a better way.
