Package: openssh-server
Version: 1:7.3p1-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: d-i

Dear Maintainer,

It is well established that openssh-server/permit-root-login is a NOOP
(the result is always "PermitRootLogin prohibit-password"), but 
it would be nice to be able to specify "PermitRootLogin yes".

Yes, it is not recommended, but it is the only way to allow
logins to preseeded d-i autoinstalled hosts if adding a local user
automatically is disabled.
