I think that's too easy.  There is a python3-xapian module which can be used by 
the rdeps.  The py2keep tag isn't meant for "I don't care to investigate" issues.

$ apt-cache rdepends python-xapian
python-xapian
Reverse Depends:
   python-moinmoin
   python-xappy
   python-translate
   python-carquinyol
   python-jarabe
   python-sphinxcontrib.websupport


These packages exist:

   python3-translate
   python3-sphinxcontrib.websupport

So the preference still would be to get the other packages ported or removed, if 
possible.

I was merely following the instructions you gave:

| If the package has still many users (popcon >= 300), or is needed to
| build another package which cannot be removed, document that by
| adding the "py2keep" user tag

Sure, happy to drop it once nothing's using it.

Cheers,
