Description
Steps to reproduce: Try to enable a module which has unresolved depencies.
It would make the whole thing a lot easier - especially for newbies who maybe don't understand all this depency-stuff - if there was a javascript which would immedeatly offer to check all required modules - if available - after checking a module with depencies. This was suggested at [1]

Thanks for your request!
It's unfortunately too late for D6 as features are frozen... otherwise this sounds to be reasonable, though we have to check whether this might be problematic in some cases.

This is not a change in functionality nor a backend feature. It's merely a UI enhancement so that the user can be sure that the correct dependencies will also be enabled -- otherwise they may be uncertain and confused.
Plz tag for newbie
