It's fine to hold this in -proposed for right now.

Given that we have a recent spate of reports about maintainer scripts
hanging on 'plymouth --ping' due to plymouthd having hung, and console-setup
calls plymouth --ping in its postinst, I think this is not a bug in
console-setup, and therefore also not a regression. However, since any
upgrade of console-setup is going to tickle the bug for affected users, I
think we need to resolve the plymouth problem first before pushing this SRU
out.
