I don't think there's a point in an installer question -- it's trivial to
add the merge later with a single apt command. An installer question is
pretty costly -- it is seen and has to be answered by everyone who installs
at the given debconf level. Thus, such knobs should be reserved for things
that 1. make sense to be asked to most people, or 2. would be hard to
recover from if not given at install time (like _undoing_ usrmerge).
