I think dependencies are fundamentally the right model for this sort
of problem. I can't imagine what could go wrong that wouldn't amount
to a failure to insert all of the right dependencies, and thus be
fixable by inserting whatever was missing.

It's possible I am lacking in imagination, so take that opinion for
what it's worth.
