The only think I could think of that was similar was the
nova-compute-* pkgs:

Package: nova-compute-kvm
Provides: nova-compute-hypervisor
Conflicts: nova-compute-hypervisor

But that does Provides/Conflicts which ensures, say, that
nova-compute-lxc would get bumped if you install nova-compute-kvm.

I was going to let this soak on list for a few days to see if anyone
listening had any experience of this type of approach.
