No, it's just that dependence on /etc/X11/xorg.conf is being phased out in Xorg, and dpkg (dpkg-reconfigure) merely reflects that when setting up xserver-xorg. However, Xorg will use one if provided, which then only needs to be a minimal version with just the desired deviations from default. For nVidia use, the "nvidia-xconfig" command (and package) is provided to make an xorg.conf file where none exists, or to adapt an existing one.
