I think I get your meaning.  However you cannot have a supplemental
package, like syslog-ng3 provide the same file as a base package.  If
that happens the supplemental package will refuse to install due to
overwriting an file provided by a different package and you wouldn't
want to remove the base package to get the supplemental package installed.

Therefore each package has to install it's own /etc/init.d/ file, with
the supplemental package possibly/probably disabling the
/etc/init.d/base-logger startup script.

The thing about such an approach though is that the naive user, seeing a
startup script has been disabled might think he should enable it.

Indeed.
