For more detail, what actually happens is that the config file is regenerated on upgrade from the original debconf questions. However, this a. discards any local changes not made through debconf (should we allow these? if not the warning in the conf file should be bigger!) and b. several of the questions are not asked by debconf because of their priority. It's not immediately obvious how these should be configured since dpkg-reconfigure still doesn't ask them due to their debconf priority (in particular splash).
It's not clear that the automatic generation should happen more than once; I think it should happen only if the config file doesn't exist.
