It will be a better solution. But in this moment dbconfig-common *use* one of them mysql-client or postgresql-client, the other aplication could not need it.
Policy says:
"Every package must specify the dependency information about other packages that are required for the first to work correctly."
If there no one of postgresql-client and mysql-client, it fails to work in all case, then it has to depend on (at least) one of them. But unfortunately, it doesn't solve the problem of the other package.
A possible solution could be if there exists virtual packages dbconfig-mysql-common and dbconfig-postgres-common that depends on (mysql or postgres) and dbconfig-common.
