The virtual/ namespace exists from previous days and its true that pseudo can do anything fakeroot could do so in that sense its valid. The opposite is not true however as you've found out. So technically, yes, we now require pseudo-native and we could go and change those dependencies. Its not exactly a pressing issue but I'd take patches.
