Sorry, i think you misunderstood me. This small chunk of code with
force_depends must live at the grimoire level. But if you decide that we
need some more generic solution, it goes into sorcery.

This condition is a limitation. I dont think that splitting spells with
different versions is a good thing.
sub_depends was great generic solution, solved some problems. IMHO
version_depends is equally imortant.
