this can be done already, as you can see in in 
http://piuparts.debian.org/sid/pass/upstart_0.6.6-2.log

http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=piuparts/piatti.git;a=blob;f=org/piuparts.debian.org/etc/scripts/pre_install_exceptions;h=33c80bd8ad543df03311308adacf2ef4861ba2ff;hb=HEAD 
has the hook script you need.

Still I understand that making this easier for casual tests would be nice, so 
I'll happily take a patch! ;-)


cheers,
