Why isn't /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common set as a
configuration file which shouldn't be overwritten when a user changed
it, while /etc/modprobe.d/lrm-video does have user changes maintained  ?

The way I see it is that you either do not allow user changes to both or
to none. This is regardless of the specific use case of installing
external drivers. I'm not sure what envyng is but it would probably
won't allow me to install any odd driver I want, hence it doesn't impact
this bug.

Please reopen this ticket and either fix it by allowing user
modifications to files in /etc/default (which are /etc hence are
configuration files, hence are meant to be modified) or disallow
modifications in all relevant files.
