[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#606268: Nuke /etc/network/interfaces wifi config later in d-i when a script is provided by NM

I had a discussion with Michael and others on #debian-gnome, in which we
discussed the difficulty of implementing an ideal solution, and the
outcome of which was:

10:44 < SynrG> mbiebl: around? just wondering if joeyh's proposal for
#606268 is reasonable.
...
11:41 < mbiebl> SynrG: back to your original question: yeah, I'd be fine
if d-i was extended to nuke configurations from /e/n/i later during
installation if it finds a script provided by nm

That is, it's fine to do this sort of thing during install, just not
during normal NM package installation/upgrade.

So, I'd like to help in this area if there's anything I can do,
particularly on the netcfg side.
