Hi Marc,
  in my opinion the reconfigure target of dpkg can't delete a
configuration file that could be modified by the system administrator,
so I prefer to not implement such a feature.

If you agree (and think it would be useful), I could add a note about
this behaviour (delete the config file to be asked again by debconf
while reconfiguring) in README.Debian.

I assume this would be enough.
