Yes, that's one of the (cleanest) variants I prefer. However, since most
packages usually provide only one tiny vim file, there might be
arguments against splitting them into subpackages, as discussed several
times before in different contexts. Thus, I was wondering whether
Imho it is very annoying to have to install an extra subpackage only to
get a syntax file. Therefore I am in favor of any solution that will
install the syntax file at the same time the main package is installed,
e.g. by multi-owning the vimfiles dir or changing vim to provide a
vim-filesystem package.
