Comment:

 The latest patch needs a refresh against current `trunk`.

 I'm also considering just closing this out as `wontfix`. `WP_Depenencies`
 was introduced in 2.6, and specifying dependencies in array format when
 using `wp_enqueue_script()`/`wp_enqueue_style()` is now such a common
 practice that I don't know that the benefit of this change still exists.

 Marking `close`/`2nd-opinion` for others to weigh in.
