An alternative dependency leaves the choice still to the user. An
alternative dependency is fulfilled as soon as any package providing
httpd-cgi in this case is installed. Hence, your approach is redundant
and slightly uncommon within Debian.

The only advantage is a seamless integration of new httpds, but that's
nothing a bug report with patch for the main package couldn't solve as
well.
