I believe that you are a bit late into this discussion. Initially I proposed[63] a solution not involving triggers in the spirit of minimal changes. Then Daniel Leidert being a member of the XML/SGML Group requested[78] that the package catalogs be created at build time and be shipped as conffiles. Later Joey Hess[164] requested that the central catalog be generated using triggers. At that time both requests made sense (and to me they still do). There were no objections and I did not see the dpkg conffile trigger issue #676062 coming. So I implemented both. The current state is that there are no non-transition issues left. Once you are on sid, there are no sgml-base specific rc bugs affecting you. Going "back" will not make the transitioning part any easier. At least I don't see how that would work, but maybe your yet hidden solution can surprise me?
