Extra features like support for Clamav, SpamAssassin, spell checking via aspell, many internal additions. I'd rather suggest renaming the few files in sylpheed-claws package, so it can coexist with stable sylpheed. Using Alternatives is overhead. And why should sylpheed-claws become /usr/bin/sylpheed? That is misleading if both packages can be installed at once.
