If things only have to be fine when using a stock config, why not
abolish all those limiting rules about /etc and just disallow the
use to cope with it directly and keep it under total control of
the packaging system and some configuration managment like some
YaST ported to Debian? </SARKASM>

Hallo? This is Debian. Changing a configuration file is proper and
intended use of the system. Making such things break is the worst thing
after remote root exploits and deleting arbitrary data in my eyes. And
I think in many other people's eyes, who choose Debian.
Hochachtungsvoll,
