Sounds like a good idea, but on the other hand having them listed in
the text of the recipe makes it easier to inspect it and not forget
about it (I can understand Dependencies being "meta" information
enough to warrant being listed in a separate file but I'm not sure
about this.) What I mean is: I do see your point but I'm undecided
about it. More voices are welcome. :)
