I have to say I really prefer using a different field for this; I might go so far as to suggest that on compilation those dependencies which come from the "Nonshared-depends" field (I'm not wild about that name, but I don't have a better idea myself at the moment) go into a new field, to ease in transition to the new system. Of course, this is assuming that anyone actually wants to code the implementation of this...
