[Debconf-devel] Bug#445286: readline frontend for debconf and previous values

[GSR]

Hi:

Already possible to have the previous values typed in. See reports
635032 & 537870. Install libterm-readline-gnu-perl to make the values
appear ready to be edited.

So what probably should do is include the values in prompt text when
the package is not installed. Then allow pressing enter to accept, and
only edits would require retyping.

Cheers,
GSR
