Yes, that is very well and fine. What we don't have is the ability to 
define an "initial" dependency on a component that may go away without 
affecting the service that initially depended on it. i.e. A component 
can start functioning when the initial set of deployments on server 
restart have reached a certain state it continues to function when one 
of those deployments gets undeployed.
