Thanks. Perhaps it was still to early for coding this morning :)

The idea with only using apt-file if the installed filter is not
applied is a good one.

I implemented both now.

One issue that I don't know how to handle yet are different package
version which could contain different files. E.G. an user having
unstable and experimental enabled.
