+1, I'm working on a debian derivative for a customer, and I have numerous examples of cases where this would help us. It would be nice to have this implemented (before the squeeze release at least). The downside is that the administrator might not be aware that a package installed a file there... If that's something important, you might be able to provide an optional service that warns by using a dpkg file trigger on /etc/sudoers.d that would display a debconf note if new files were added (or updated).
