The usual way we handle this in Fedora / RPM Fusion is to use subpackages
rather than dependency filtering. This has its own drawbacks, but it's less of
a hack.

FYI, nspluginwrapper can (and is in Fedora, partly due to SELinux) also be used
in that way. There's no requirement in nspluginwrapper that the wrapper process
and the browser process are of different bitness, you can use nspluginwrapper
on 32-bit plugins in a 32-bit browser or 64-bit plugins in a 64-bit browser as
well.
