Will there ever be a time when we dump the 'g' naming scheme?

A new major revision of a library is such a time. Example: if/when zlib2
is released, the package should be named zlib2_nnn-mmm.deb, not zlib2g_*
as there's no libc5-dependent zlib2 we have to worry about.

No, it will be libz2, as per policy.
