I did something similar for the init script and defaults for shorewall.
I turned shorewall into a dummy package, and then I had
shorewall-common, shorewall-perl and shorewall-shell.  The configuration
files went into shorewall-common, but I kept the files named
/etc/init.d/shorewall and /etc/default/shorewall.
