By "complete", I do mean the dependencies.
For an existing example, 
org.apache.commons.fileupload
depends on 
org.apache.commons.io
so before we could say that "commons.fileupload"
was in Orbit and "ready to use" 
we also want to be sure that "commons.io"
is in Orbit (not just that "commons.io" 
is "somewhere else" such as maven central.

That sort of dependency checking is one thing the
current PDE build does "automatically".
