We could set min and max version if only one package is listed in
Recommends. For example
Recommends: iceweasel (>= 3.6), iceweasel (<= 4.0~b2pre)

But what should mozilla-devscripts do if alternatives like "iceweasel |
icedove" are generated?

Setting the min version is doable, but all mozilla application have to
follow one conversion rule for converting upstream versions to debian
versions (e.g. 4.0b2pre -> 4.0~b2pre).
