The package is intended for normal users, for whom installing both dracut
and initramfs-tools seems really rare and weird. Also your patch will even render
the system not usable because now initramfs no more updates when zfs upgrades.

It is possible to further split packages into, e.g., zfs-{initramfs,dracut}-core
that depends on their corresponding underlying -core packages, and make
zfs-{initramfs,dracut} depend on them. However I haven't heard similar
use cases from any other users.
