As an additional remark, the Policy text suggests that the combination of
Breaks and Replaces directives should allow dpkg to overwrite the overlapping
files and transfer ownership of said files to the new package.

Hi Helmut,
I ran some empirical tests to make sure that we solve the underlying problem
properly.
As you say, the goal is to prevent two conflicting packages to be unpacked at
the same time.
This is what I tried:
1. Install the present (monolithic) package in Testing: 3.2.10~ds-1
2. With dpkg,
Package: netatalk-tools
Version: 4.0.0~ds-4
Severity: serious
User: debian...@lists.debian.org
Usertags: fileconflict
Control: affects -1 + netatalk
netatalk-tools has an undeclared file conflict. This may result in an
unpack error from dpkg.
The files
* /usr/bin/ad
* /usr/bin/afpldaptest
* /u
