cool! I'm too curious how this will turn out! But a new Debian

Well, lets see how this evolve. Hopefully users will give us enough
feedback to make them really useful.
These packages and subdirs are a good starting point. Linuxaudio is
transforming every day, so I think a lot has to change in the different
meta-packages.
The biggest recent changes imo in linuxaudio is
a) release of Ardour3 (with midi support)
b) release of Non-Session-Manager (NSM)
Point a means that LV2 plugins are more and more important for mixing
and using virtual softsynths/instruments.
Point b gives revival to the 'one-task-one-tool-approach' in the audio
area. It should be in Debian as soon as possible (new release is coming
within a few weeks)

It might be good to have a 'NON' metapackage with Non-Timeline,
Non-Mixer, Non-Sequencer and Non-session-manager.
You want the NSM supported apps in Debian and likely in the
metapackages. An NSM metapackage like you've for ladi, might be good
too: http://non.tuxfamily.org/wiki/ApplicationsSupportingNsm
I think 'audio-plugins' should be 'softsynths or virtual instruments'.
Then you've to think about where to put the LV2 and DSSI plugins.
Special metapackage or in one of the existing ones (mixing/softsynths)
You've LV2 plugins for mixing and LV2 plugins as softsynths/virtual
instruments.
I think I would remove the timestretching package, you'll find it in
your DAW normally (Ardour/Qtractor).
