Hm, I do like your proposed naming scheme, but the current package name
seems to be more explanatory than "python-docutils-pdf", and the foo2bar
naming scheme has some history in the PostScript world. I guess this all
depends on your level of abstraction.

I wonder whether having two packages would be overkill? eg.

 Package: python-docutils-pdf
 Depends: python-reportlab, [..]
  Contains the library.

 Package: rst2pdf
 Depends: python-docutils-pdf (= ${binary:Version}, [..]
  Contains /usr/bin/rst2pdf, manpage, etc.
