As Mr. Sliepen pointed out the same can be achieve with a FUSE daemon.
I thought of symlinks pointing to an executable that load the necessary

For example:

So I think what I describe *is* a cache of Debian packages.
They are stored elsewhere (on the Internet), and it is duplicated data, namely

One thing is that this system is per user.
Having something like that per computer would be

_all_ packages and the user can use _all_ packages.
