Am I the only one who thinks that this dep:{build,...} thing looks really
ugly and is hard to read?

IMO simply removing the "dep" part would greatly improve things:

DEPENDENCIES="
:build,run? ( ... )
:run? ( ... )
"

s/:/@/ would also be interesting

DEPENDENCIES="
@build,run? ( ... )
@run? ( ... )
"
