Description
The new feature which checks for missing module dependencies is very cool. My only objection is that it checks for missing dependencies (and gives me the warning message) for modules which are not actually activated. Many of the "bigger" modules come with a big set of sub-modules which have their own dependencies, many of which I never intend to use. The Plugin Manager module is warning me about missing dependencies for modules that I don't care about. In my mind, the warning should only appear for activated modules (same behavior as Update module).

I'm curious how this would work since you cannot activate a module with missing dependencies.
#2
Good point. I guess it would only be checking the dependencies for non-activated modules.
