Comment(by azaozz):

 I'm with @westi and @markjaquith on this. Our hooks API is flexible enough
 to handle this case perfectly. The patch in #13296 just adds a lot of code
 without offering significant improvements.

 Note that a priority can be set in the main plugin to run the custom
 action code first on "plugins_loaded" avoiding any possible collisions
 with the dependent plugins using the same hook:
 {{{
 function my_plugin_prefix_init() {
     do_action( 'my_plugin_prefix_init' );
 }
 add_action( 'plugins_loaded', 'my_plugin_prefix_init', -1 );
 }}}
