I'm afraid not. That was a different option on the CTTE ballot [0] 
(option A) and it did not win.

[0]: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1091864#136

If the avahi-daemon package maintainers had been amenable to this 
option, it may well have won, but they rejected it. So selecting this 
option would have required overruling these package maintainers.
