If every package has to use it why not add this function to dpkg? dpkg already keeps a file with the contents of each packet. This could be extended to keep the permissions too. Or create a database with contains every filename (just like "locate") and the permissions of every file. We would only need an override file in /etc and maybe some small tools (checkperms etc.).
