I support demoting hal to Recommends. The reason is that Debian was always the most flexible solution among the binary-based distros for me, and if we can install less packages to get nessesary functionality, we better install less. I've read the discussion and I think that using workaround like equivs is not good, because equivs is usually used in very special cases. Also, adding a xserver-xorg-nohal may cause unnessesary maintaing issues. The solution in Subject is the most painless, I think.
