If you shell out, edit /etc/foo.conf to merge the updated from
foo.conf.dpkg-new (or in any other way), then return to the conffile

Policy explicitly says that using the conffile mechanism is
inappropriate for this kind of configuration file. Report a bug. Given
that we have UCF, there's really no excuse for this any more.
