On the main point, #3 of the original report, I think it's a
non-problem.  dpkg-reconfigure does not seem to change the files
in /etc/cups, but it must be changing files elsewhere.  I tried deleting
one backend (via dpkg-reconfigure), and lpinfo -v subsequently showed it
was gone.

I tested with cupsys 1.3.0-3 .

Where this happens I'm not sure.  /usr/lib/cups/backend/ was touched,
and there was no parallel file in that directly.
Oddly, /usr/lib/cups/backend-available/ was not touched, and still has
parallel in it.

On the other points, #1 remains, since the document has not changed.

For #2 the grammatical error is fixed, and a clearer explanation is
probably not very important since this feature was removed.
