Not clear enough. Many packages apply virtual provides not covered by these lists (e.g. alternate package names, obsoletes/provides, legacy provides etc.) This proposal doesn't specify which class of virtual provides it is aiming at.
Thanks for the input, I completly forgot about those since they are outside of the scope, though alternate names is at the limit... I am indeed focused on alternate functionalities or similar provides. I'll update.
