As already mentioned briefly in my talk at LOCon, we need to make up our mind how to handle LO extension dependencies.
Skipping most of this -
I'd tend to give the fine-grained dependencies a try.
That won't work in practice, unless those can be (semi-)automatically generated. Experience shows that all programmers are lazy, and seldomly go extra miles. Having a simple version string, and some volunteers testing uploaded extensions on the extension repo sounds much more workable - and useful in practice, since no syntactic compatibility one could come up with would ensure semantic equality...
