There is no dependency breakage. The dependencies allow to make your situation happen, yes,
so that's a bug in the dependencies, but the apt just sees the specified dependencies and
the "solution" it found is "correct" given the dependencies (though not giving a working
app of course).

No, it's improper dependencies. Read what the bts says about this.

Of course. Simply because the i386 binaries do not exist yet. *Of course* the
same problem will happen on anything which doesn't have 3.0.1 binaries in sid yet.
