I don't think convenience is really relavent. This is a licensing issue
and relates back to our social contract. We can't just break that if
its convenient.

The last time we talked about this the resolution was:
free but dependent on non-free but not feasibly freeable -> z-rejected
free but dependent on non-free but feasibly freeable -> main w/bug
feasable being up to the grimoire lead

In anycase, you might be able to get away with depending on JAVA or
something, but using a cross-grimoire dependency for z-rejected is
probably something that should at least be discussed in a wider forum.

I would say remove the cross-grimoire part for now.
