You may want to try a diamond shape:
Cryptography-All (dummy package)
  Cryptography-MD4
    Cryptography-Base
  Cryptography-MD5
...

and agree with the team that you always save on the Cryptography-All
level. That's what we do with Kolibri, and it works fine.

But formally I'm not even a member of the team, so what am I doing here ;)

KISS is probably the way to go for now anyway.
