There are several different ways to handle it, but I was thinking
about using the debconf/preseed element that's been in byobu since
Lucid, byobu/launch-by-default, which is currently defaulted to
"false".

I think we could handle the upgrade situation cleanly with logic in
the config and postinst parts of the debconf handling.
