This is awesome, I never heard of this, so I'm glad you sent it.

I'd love to move telemetry projects to use this (we have a lot of
bindeps for our tests), and I've just one question (for now).

If bindep.txt is present, are the "standard" packages still installed?
If yes, this is going to be more challenging to get bindep.txt right, as
a missing entry will go unnoticed.
