Yeah, deps (and future addition of cfgs) is basically why I wanted this.
But it's no big deal if we ignore crates like cssparser.

I'm more interested in:


   - h5e (capi)
   - SM
   - fontconfig (not ported yet)
   - glutin (already CId)
   - openssl/hyper/other net libs
   - png/stb/other image libs
