So... maybe I got your point wrong, but I don't think it's any kind of a
problem to have different dependencies from one plugin to another --
actually, I think each plugin should set it dependencies to exactly what
it needs: nothing less (of course), and nothing more.


You got it mostly. I just mean some way for the build system to handle multiple plugins sharing same dependencies like having webkit.m4 that enables/disables multiple plugins if not found. So when you configure, it says something like this:

  checking for WebKit >= x.xx ... no
     Disabling plugins: WebHelper, Devhelp, Markdown
  checking for LibVTE >= x.xx ... no
     Disabling plugins: Debugger, MultiTerm

Instead of:

  checking for WEBHELPER ... no
  checking for DEVHELP ... yes
  checking for MARKDOWN ... no
  checking for DEBUGGER ... no
  checking for MULTITERM ... yes
  ....
  Plugins:
    WebHelper   no
    Devhelp     yes
    Markdown    no
    Debugger    no
    MultiTerm   yes

Cheers,
Matthew Brush
