The PblWML page already describes a "dependencies" field (see http://www.wesnoth.org/wiki/PblWML), though I'm not sure if it actually has any effect on anything. But my point is, we (add-on authors) have already been told to use dependencies= in .pbl files. How would this requires= differ from dependencies=, and would it be intended to replace it? I don't see any point to changing the name of the field just for the sake of changing it.
