Hi,

wouldn't this be a perfect use case for update-alternatives? I use

```
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/fd fd /usr/bin/fdfind 10
```

on my machines in order to use `fd`. As far as I can tell, it should be 
relatively easy to implement: 
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/nano/-/blob/debian/latest/debian/nano-tiny.postinst

It would be really great if you could implement it.

Kind regards (another) Markus
