Yes, but without this package they won't be able to run the majority
of examples, which I think delivers a poor experience to the user. It
also means I have to litter my examples with if(require("x")),
decreasing the signal to noise ratio in the examples.
But we're getting a bit far from my original question about the NOTE:
Package in Depends field not imported from: 'hflights'
These packages needs to imported from for the case when
this namespace is loaded but not attached.
Depending on (or linking to) a package is not just about making the
functions in the package available.
