I think installing the packages xserver-xorg-lts-wily and linux-generic-
lts-wily will do exactly what you want.

  make an virtual package for updating to latest video drivers available

Bug description:
  I would like to be able to install, for example, wily video
  drivers/kernel/mesa easily. For example, I install a package called
  "mesa-lts-wily" or better "wily-video-drivers" and it selects all
  needed packages to make the transition, instead having to select them
  individually.  Another one such as "vivid-enablement-package" that
  installs vivid kernel, vivid mesa, vivid xorg, etc.
