From the package description, it seems that this behavior is rather by design, isn't it?

"The package will automatically convert your existing symlinks into the file method on installation, and convert the file back into symlinks on removal. Both mechanisms are compatible through /etc/init.d/rc, /etc/init.d/rcS, /usr/sbin/update-rc.d, and /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d scripts."

I honestly don't see the point in file-rc though. I don't think throwing the whole contents of rc*.d into one file makes things easier to maintain.
