I have never seen this used (I don't claim it isn't used somewhere, mind
you) and I still can't think of a good reason for why anybody should.

And "other platforms", including those that use plain rpm, seem to be
using fine-grained versioned dependencies in the concrete scenario
you've outlined.  I did look at zypper about a year ago, but
unfortunately the dependencies on other libraries were quite extensive,
so I didn't go forward.
