yes, but the problem is that when you run

dpkg-reconfigure openser

$START_ON_BOOT variable value is not stored in /etc/default/openser and
consequently when you rerun the script, old value is not remembered.
also openser.postinst tries to access the value:

RET=
db_get openser/start_on_boot || true
if [ "$RET" = true ]; then
    START_ON_BOOT=yes
else
    START_ON_BOOT=no
fi
