I think you should report this as a bug on Bugzilla.
IMO, an automated or manual update should not remove a critical package; 
certain packages should be listed on a list of critical packages and need 
a double confirmation with red blinking screen before allowing any of them 
to be removed.
Kernel, zypper, yast, libc, boot scripts...
I don't think it was zypper misbehaving here... it's 3rd party repo
updating (once again) crucial packages, which are part of the
distribution. This is almost always doomed to fail at one point in time.

@PMs: I thought such disastrous things were known from Alsa updates in
the past? Wasn't the rule in PM now NOT to have any lib as an update
that existed in the base distro?
