Details

If a required extension is not installed do something along the lines of the following: * the user will be given the option of installing the required items if an updateURL is specified for the required item in em:requires. * the user will always be given the option of installing the required items since updateURL will default to AMO when it is not specified. * if em:requires provides a homepageURL the user would be provided with a link to the required item's home page.
There should also be the option to check for / install dependencies after the install is completed http://wiki.mozilla.org/Extension_Dependencies#User_Interface_.28partially_completed.29
