It's not really ideal either, but another option would be doing an update in the next wheezy point release preparing this migration. For example moving the configuration files from apache2.2-common to apache2 or apache2.2-bin in wheezy shouldn't cause any problem and after the files have been moved apache2.2-common can be safely purged during upgrade. Moving them to apache2 package would mean you won't have to move them again in the upgrade to apache 2.4, but it would create a new and circular dependency of apache2.2-common on apache2. Given that apache2.2-common already depends on apache2.2-bin and there exists a transitional package in jessie it might be a better candidate. Then you would have to move it again in the jessie package, but I'm afraid there aren't any easy solutions.
