According to policy this is depracated behavior:
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-binary.html#s-maintscriptprompt
Package maintainer scripts may prompt the user if necessary. Prompting
should be done by communicating through a program, such as debconf, which
conforms to the Debian Configuration management specification, version 2
or higher. Prompting the user by other means, such as by hand[8], is now
deprecated.
This behavior prevents me from using DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
(debconf.7) to install sendmail on a large number of machines.
