Having such a mechanism, would prevent lots of beginners in the

The main barrier I can see to this is getting whatever parses the config file to recognise such dependencies; as it is, it's the compiler that runs into the problem, not the program that calls the compiler. The compiler doesn't know where the relevant source is if not told to include it, after all.
