I'm done with that and it comes down to four missing packages:
* ocramius/proxy-manager
* propel/propel1
* doctrine/data-fixtures
* ircmaxell/password-compat

The wiki contains further details [1].

I see these options:
A) Package them (and delay symfony components).
B) Simply (at least for now) drop the two bridges and 
   remove the non-existing 'Suggests:'.
C) Some kind of combination of A) and B).
What do you think?

Additionally there is an issue with dh_composer generating a dependency
to a non existing package 'php-swiftmailer', but in Debian the package
is called 'libphp-swiftmailer'.
Is there some kind of override-mechanism in dh_phpcomopser for this? If
not, should I sed' this out in d/rules or is it possible to rename the
package libphp-swiftmailer in Debian? (BTW: I anyhow would vote for
renaming it to php-swiftmailer.)

I did not made any progress here, yet.
