Hmmm..

Reverse dependencies could be a computationally expensive operation :D ... Well, once there are thousands of packages. 

Is there a really useful case for that? Really?

Version is taken care of in the package canonicalization I specified:    [repo:]name[-MM.NN][.RR][.BB]

I have to do some proof-of-concept work before I get to per-user/portable/cloud install (I suspect they may be very similar to each other.)

And --rdep to list reverse dependencies.
A way to specify what version you want to install.
A way to specify what install type you want (all-users, per-user, portable, source).
