The man page says that if there is any link for the specified name in a
runlevel directory, then it will not make any changes in that runlevel.
So you should be able to link a K??name script in every runlevel and have
update-rc.d never touch the links for that program again. update-rc.d is
used by the post-install scripts, so all should be good.
