Let me clarify this -- /usr/bin/emacs must be either a symlink or a wrapper script unless the emacs and emacs-nox packages conflict. Given that, it seems to me like /etc/alternatives is the preferred solution -- at least it's a standard way to set up a symlink. It is definitely the right thing to do on Debian systems.
