I would argue that the user should be somewhat responsible here... I don't plan to fix this at the dpkg level at least. Maybe you can reaffect the bug to upstart if you really believe that it deserves some more consideration.

Note that it's pretty rare that the system ends up entirely unusable even when interrupted in the middle of an upgrade.
