Unrelated to the apt proposal, how come dpkg-divert is being used here 
by gpgv-from-sq instead of using the what-is-python/python-is-pythonX 
approach of just shipping a symlink?
The python-is-pythonX approach is much simpler, fully declarative (as 
in: the future state of the system is statically described by the 
content of the package, not at runtime), and removes the need for the 
maintscripts to know about the other implementations.
