Well, you could easily make libgl1-nvidia-glx-ia32:amd64 recommend
libgl1-nvidia-glx-i386 - which you already do, so the only change would
be making libgl1-nvidia-glx-i386 an actual MA: foreign package instead
of a virtual one. Then libgl1-nvidia-glx-ia32:amd64 would be installable
in any case, but those with i386 enable will get it installed automatically.
Kind regards,
Ralf
