Well, what does "all instances" even mean? Note that instances can be instantiated dynamically. i.e. without having a unit file foo@bar.service on disk you can simply by having foo@.service on disk make "systemctl start foo@bar.service" work. Hence, if you want some other service to have deps onto "all" instances of foo@.service, then this would mean you'd have to add deps for really all theoretically possible instance strings, and those are quite a few... Now, what would make more sense if by "all" you just mean "all *enabled* instances". if that's what you mean then RequiredBy= in [Install] should do what you need. Alternatively, if by "all" you mean "all *running" instances", then you could use PartOf= in the instance unit file instead of Requires=. The effective difference is that only stops are propagated, but not starts.
