Please forgive me if this ml is a bad place for suggestions.

Ad "overrides" - what about "per-virtual" preferencies:
What happens if packages A and B provide functionality X, packages B & C
provide Y *and* you prefer B for X and C for Y? (This situation can be
actually solved by order "C > B > A", but that wouldn't be possible if C
provided X, too.)

TIA,
