Agreed.
 From my POV, RPM Requires should contain only deps which are *required* 
for a particular package. Suggests/Recommends is really missing and 
enforcing these kinds of deps via Requires is evil. What you should do 
now is to add such packages into a single comps group so they get 
installed together or create a meta-package that pulls all packages that 
*should* be installed together.
