At the moment the "dependent” field of plugins is only used to cascade 
switching in dependent plugins when switching in a theme or language. There is 
currently no mechanism within the plugin library to automatically select 
dependent plugins in the UI. Such a UI could be added fairly simply, I think.

In the meantime, there are many such dependencies amongst the core plugins, and 
the approach that is taken is to have a startup module that checks for the 
required dependencies, and displays an alert if any are missing. Have a look at 
the text-slicer plugin for an example of this.

Best wishes

Jeremy
