So even the pre-depends solution is not an option for this release? I
agree that the patch you propose now is quite involved, but wouldn't it
help to release wheezy with a proper pre-depends and then fix this
properly in wheezy+1? Or do you consider the pre-depends solution too ugly?

Of course.

If we don't want to fix this now for wheezy, I will as the release team
to properly tag these bugs.
