Ideally we probably want to merge the support in this patch with the idea

Hi Bruce,

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't it essentially do the same thing? You're adding a new loop over optional deps, while I'm simply extending existing loop to iterate over deps + optional deps, which would achieve the same thing?

What does that patch do that this patch doesn't?
