You are right. You can usually overwrite those files with the same name without doing any harm to your system.
The easiest way to do that is to add to the end of the /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg file line
I have never had any difficulties because of that. In spite of that line configurating files are NOT overwrited automatically - so it's secure.
I think that 'force-overwrite' was the default in older Debian versions but it was removed for debugging reasons.
