Reading this makes me think I didn't understand an important part of the discussion. Isn't this basic semantic versioning?

If you have a 1.x of your main package, you want to release 2.x and you have a dependency of which you want to include a newer version than is covered by your current semver range, then update the range in your package.json before you release 2.x.

There is also nothing wrong with bumping dependency semver ranges in a module in master. Then you can install the new dependency version when you pull the latest changes and update your dependencies. This should obviously only be done when there was an important change in the dependency that is required in master.

This seems very obvious and is covered thoroughly in at least the documentation of npm. What am I missing?
