It is.

I still intend to drop libxine1's dependency on libxine1-x and
libxine1-console; however, there are still packages which should but don't
depend on either of those, so I don't think that I can do so now – though I'm
tempted. It's not as if they've not had warning.
(See bug nos. 575121 and 575124.)

That looks fine to me.

True, it doesn't, but it does ensure that you get useful plugins.

Which is why I want to remove libxine1-x and libxine1-console from libxine1's
dependency list...
