I agree we are not forbidden from suggesting: Seems to me the choice of 
words by the Technical Committee was deliberate, as that matches how 
packages outside of Debian (i.e. non-free stuff) is allowed to be 
suggested only.

Well, re-reading

paragraph 2 says

Taken literally, it doesn't forbid Suggest. Does it ?

[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#837929: npm: Should suggest nodejs-legacy

[Matijs van Zuijlen]

Package: npm
Version: 1.4.21+ds-2
Severity: wishlist

Executables installed with npm need the /usr/bin/node executable, which
is provided in the nodejs-legacy package. This information is currently
only in the README.Debian file. I think it would be really helpful to
add nodejs-legacy to the npm package's Suggests:, or even Recommends:. 

Regards,
Matijs
