The point of listing virtual packages in Policy is to deal with
disparate people maintaining packages that Provide the virtual package.
If the people using the virtual packages are part of a tightly-knit
packaging team, they can maintain the virtual packages themselves,
without listing them in Policy.

In light of this, could you confirm that this needs to go into Policy?
I am not familiar with you Vim guys, what with being the co-maintainer
of a dh_* tool for Emacs addons..
