I've just thought of something which might help with backward-compatibility.
What if the package foo (which contains headers) were given a dependency

  Depends: foo-shlibs (= current.version), foo-bin

That way, at least when you are upgrading foo-bin will get installed.
This doesn't solve things completely, because users could still remove
foo-bin and get into trouble, but it least it minimizes the chances
that things break during the transition period.

Anybody see drawbacks to this?
