           Summary: Full dependency tracking
           Product: Sorcery
           Version: Untargetted future release
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: Cast
        AssignedTo: sm-sorcery-bugs AT lists.ibiblio.org
        ReportedBy: demon_lord AT myrealbox.com


When manually casting a spell with (optional/required) dependencies, if these
dependencies aren't used by any other spell, the user should be prompted for
dispel upon dispelling the manually casted spell. This would help getting rid 
of
old unused libraries and make a cleaner system overall.

Fake example:
$> cast my_spell
my_spell optionnaly depends on my_lib, cast my_lib? [y]
casting my_lib
casting my_spell
$> cast other_spell
other_spell depends on my_lib
casting other_spell
$> dispel my_spell
dispelling my_spell
$> dispel other_spell
other_spell dependency my_lib isn't used anymore, dispel my_lib? [y]
dispelling other_spell
dispelling my_lib
$> echo "Hurray!"
Hurray!

Adding a flag to the cast command to discriminate spells that have been cast 
by
a script (flag present) or by the user (flag absent) would probably achieve 
this
goal.

If this is to work, one should in theory be able to cast
$FAVORITE_WINDOW_MANAGER from a fresh install, and upon dispelling
$FAVORITE_WINDOW_MANAGER, return to a fresh install state.
