Most of the places that use `add_depends()` seem to need this type of dependency rather than the first type. + +>>>>>> Note that inline and map currently achieve the second type of dependency by +>>>>>> explicitly calling `add_depends` for each page the displayed. +>>>>>> If any of those pages are removed, the regular pagespec would not +>>>>>> match them -- since they're gone.

It's an ugly corner I'd like to +>>>>>> get rid of. --[[Joey]] + +>>>>> Implementation Details: The first type of dependency can be handled very similarly to the current +>>>>> dependency system.

For each page, we'd need a list of pagespecs that +>>>>> the page depended on, and for each pagespec you'd want to store the list of pages that currently match it. +>>>>> On refresh, you'd need to check each pagespec to see if the set of pages that match it has changed, and if +>>>>> that set has changed, then rebuild the dependent page(s).
