I am using the package with my patch applied for a few weeks now, and it is working all right. Not obtaining "default configuration" upgrades may be a big problem for users which end up suddenly having a non-working configuration... The packages at http://suwako.nomanga.net/debian/pool/main/b/bumblebee/ (which I used before I noticed your package) also make the files in /etc/bumblebee proper conffiles. AFAIK, they are based on the same Ubuntu PPA.
