This is a rather tough thing. I am not sure that this is allowed by the 
Debian policy (I am, in fact, rather sure that it's not). 

Having this happen automatically would involve some magic in the postinst
script of pacemaker, and accordingly some more magic in the postrm script
to remove the stanza that was previously added.

Additionally, we would be modifying a configuration file that does not
even belong to the package itself (pacemaker-openais vs. openais.conf).

I will take a look at the policy tomorrow to check in how far this is
legal in Debian terms; don't expect too much,tho.
