I think that note is needed and it is low priority in debconf to avoid users to see it when they set the debconf priority above low, so it respects what the policy says by "try to minimize the amount of prompting they need to do". > Displaying a note with a low priority really shows that the note is not > very important.

Please note that /usr/share/doc/hybserv/README.Debian already contains the connect block example. I disagree and I might increase the priority of the debconf prompting if it disturbs you that much, but it would therefore contradicts the section 3.9.1 you cited above. Cheers, -- .''`.
