Wearing my upstream hat, I'd like to see squid3 packages that *do not* conflict or replace squid packages in a release. Squid3 has many features that are simply not available to squid 2.5, and I think parallel installs are really quite reasonable. After we release, there will probably be people that want to stay with 2.5 for a while anyway, and having a transition period is not harmful IMO. Squid itself supports parallel installs very well.
