Comment 1 for bug 1212020

The files mentioned in your links are conffiles so they shouldn't get overwritten on updates without asking. For the first one the change is to /etc/default/rcS which is definately a configuration file so your first request is invalid. For the second request I can see the argument that despite being marked as a conffile it's not really a configuration file but I can also see the argument that enabling dangerous fsck options should not be done lightly.

In any case none of this is Pi or raspbian specific and as such i'm not messing with it on a raspbian level, that would just confuse people. If you really think it should be changed take it up with debian (but don't be surprised if you get a response like the one I gave above).
