Thanks for doing this Nathan. Another thought, it would be useful to have a top-level fetch-depends target too. It would need to call the three (?) more specific fetch-* targets. (As well as being useful, it might also fix the fact that the error message you get for missing dependencies when using the federation build tells you to run fetch-depends but not where to run it and running it in the obvious place, at the top-level, fails as there is no target.)
I'm happy to add this if people think it is worth having for M5. Regards, Mark.
