Thank you! Yeah, I think its worthwhile to open a bug about this
dependency. And it was a valid bug against synaptic, I was considering
to write a small wrapper myself to avoid it but time is short :(

Fortunately this is resolved now. Fwiw, I would maybe use a word
slightly less negative than "idiotic" in the bugreport against zenity.
