That is just as bad. bluetooth is a meta package that should pull in
the bluetooth stack. The separation between gnome, kde or xfce should
be done by the specific environment package.

And, AFAIK, not even using "bluez-gnome | kdebluetooth" is a good idea
since apt will prefer the first one. So what you might be looking for
is a "Recommends: desktop-bluez", where "desktop-bluez" is a virtual
package provided by any of the two (or more) desktop specific
packages. But even so, apt's choice from the two might be
unpredictable.
