libglade-convert and configlet-frontends

[Justin Pryzby]

Bug #297458 describes a problem of a missing dependency;
configlets-druid expects to be able to run libglade-convert, but no
dependency is declared, even indirectly.  The submitter points out
that a dependency on a development package is somewhat ugly (users
don't need the headers, docs, or static libs).

One solution is to split the package, creating a small "glade-convert"
package, including just that tool; it should be a dependency of
libglade2-dev until after the next stable release.

Another solution is to add "Provides: glade-convert", which is then a
virtual package which can be used in the depends field of
configlets-frontends; if, at some later point, a separate package is
created, or configlet no longer requires it, the depends can be
dropped, and the provides too.

Are either of these reasonable from the POV of the glade maintainers?
The other alternative is the runtime -dev dependency.
