IIRC, previous discussions of this sort of thing have tended to 
feature-creep toward having also test_recommends and various other 
granularities.

I believe there is also the issue that M::B doesn't install these items, 
it only warns about them being missing.  So, getting them installed (or 
prompting about installing them, etc.) is a matter of CPAN/CPANPLUS 
support and a new version of the META.yml spec.
