Galeon does this, with:
Depends: mozilla-browser (>=X)
Conflicts: mozilla-browser (>=Y)
However, presumably it is not always known (at the time that galeon is
built) what the next incompatible version of mozilla will be. In the
current case, it looks like it was assumed to be 1.0.1:
Conflicts: mozilla-browser (>=2:1.0.1), galeon-nautilus
