Comment(by anatol.pomozov@…):

 > I'm not sure I see any particular benefit to having the virtual package
 over declaring path: dependencies as we're currently doing.

 Currently we explicitly use macfuse dependency in every filesystem port.
 If we would have a virtual package then the macfuse/fuse4x dependency will
 be only in one place (as default implementation of the fuse interface).
 And it would be easier to change it. At least it is how it is done in APT
 or some other linux package managers.

 But if you think that it is ok to have macfuse/fuse4x dependency in every
 filesystem port then I am ok as well.
