It could be even easier: base-files could be unpacked once without 
running the maintainer scripts and then "reinstalled" again later as 
usual.

Indeed, this would be very simple and it has already been proposed.
But somebody then complained that special-casing a package would violate 
the design contraints he self-imposed to his own image building tool, 
and as we all know every Debian maintainer can veto any systemic changes 
that they do not like.
