Hi Mikkel,
you are reviving long forgotten bugs :-).
The suggest actually is there a long time - back before Precise even.

That was added in:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=698078

The reasoning to only do suggests (and not harder dependencies) is in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=697861#10

As of today munin-plugins-extra still is not split (and it would increase the maintenance burden).
Yet it is a long time ago, you might consider opening a bug with Debian and linking it here to discuss the issue more generally once more.

OTOH I understand your pain needing to install those on top to get it working, so clearly I'm not marking invalid or such.
