There have been only two people requesting this functionality in over a
decade. Making these settings preseedable would mean that adduser.conf
could no longer be a conffile, which means that a lot of error-prione
code is needed to handle local changes to the file.

I do not think that this is worth doing at the moment with such a big
number of bugs that might be more useful to people. I am therefore
de-prioritizing this even more, but would consider a merge request
containing a tested patch, documentation and test cases for
autopkgtests.

Greetings
Marc
