I had it installed at one point, but my net configs change on every different job site and sometimes I'll have multiple ip's mapped to eth0 and run in a router config. For *that* it is just as easy to fiddle with /etc/network/interfaces manually. It would certainly be nice if it were integrated into debconf, but I suppose an app that found all currently installed servers via debconf's database and either in command line or X gave you a means of selecting/deselecting servers which should be run at boot, with a default that a server not run when installed by dselect until you have specifically decided to chose it for use on this particular day/hour/customer/project/whim. I guess I should dream on. I seem to be a loner in the this need and my plate is well overfull with projects so I couldn't take it on. Doesn't look particularly difficult, but it would require cooperation from dpkg and debconf and that would probably not be forthcoming.
