Is there currently a migration from „cron” to „cron-daemon” as virtual

New packages like brcon-run don’t provide cron anymore but
cron-daemon. And many packages like exim4-base or mgetty-fax haven’t
changed their dependencies (and other packages their recommends).
cron-daemon was introduced in 2006:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=391836
http://users.teledisnet.be/ade15809/cron-daemon.html
https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/virtual-package-names-list.txt
Some packages have already bug reports for this case. But shouldn’t
this be a reason for a mass bug filling?
That's a discussion for debian-devel.
