I currently do something like this:

* On a server where I like the debonf settings:

debconf-copydb configdb newdb --configg=Name:newdb --config=Driver:File --config=Filename:/debconf.dat

(use --pattern) to grab just some of the settings

* In a script during FAI installation:

#!/bin/sh

echo -n "Altering debconf defaults for ntp/* ... "
cp $FAI/etc/debconf.dat $target/tmp
chroot $target debconf-copydb newdb configdb --config=Name:newdb --config=Driver:File --config=Filename:/tmp/debconf.dat
echo "done."

... it seems to work quite well.
