Yup, this is the reason I dared raising the option in the first
place. (Though, even if this weren't the case, I'd be up for helping
maintain such a package, but thankfully, doing so would be an easy job.)

So, if I understand it well, there is no opposition?

Then we "only" need a package name, possibly finding other scripts apart
from dh_apparmor (perhaps even poking the maintainers of various dh_*
scripts if they'd consider merging into a single thing), and a
maintainer (I'm willing to help with that, but the more the merrier,
especially if there's someone more versed in dh-land than I am).
