[wp-hackers] Plugin dependency checking

[scribu]

How about we just use the Extend slug for plugins hosted there and a full
url for the rest? The following examples would all be valid identifiers:

All-in-1 SEO Pack
all-in-1-seo-pack
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/all-in-1-seo-pack
http://example.com/some-other-plugin *

* The said URL would have to provide an API similar to that on Exend.

In other words, if you have a plugin called Master hosted on your site and
your site could provide automatic updates for that plugin, then Master could
also be used as a base plugin.
